1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

Various biosynthetic pathways have been designed to explore sustainable production of glutarate, an attractive C5 building block of polyesters and polyamides. However, its efficient production has not been achieved in Escherichia coli. Here, we use E. coli native lysine catabolic machinery for glutarate biosynthesis. This endogenous genes-only design can generate strong metabolic driving force to maximize carbon flux toward glutarate biosynthesis by replenishing glutamate and NAD(P)H for lysine biosynthesis, releasing lysine feedback inhibition, and boosting oxaloacetate supply. We use native transporters to overcome extracellular accumulation of cadaverine and 5-aminovalerate. With these efforts, both high titer (54.5 g L
