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.
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
backgroundIn comparison to synthetically derived surfactants, biosurfactants produced from microbial culture are generally regarded by industry as being more sustainable and possess lower toxicity. One major class of biosurfactants are rhamnolipids primarily produced by Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Due to its pathogenicity rhamnolipid synthesis by this species is viewed as being commercially nonviable, as such there is a significant focus to identify alternative producers of rhamnolipids.
resultsTo achieve this, we phenotypically screened marine bacteria for biosurfactant production resulting in the identification of rhamnolipid biosynthesis in a species belonging to the Marinobacter genus. Preliminary screening showed the strain to reduce surface tension of cell-free supernatant to 31.0 mN m
conclusionsThis study expands the paradigm of rhamnolipid biosynthesis to a new genus of bacterium from the marine environment. Rhamnolipids produced from Marinobacter have prospects for industrial application due to their potential to be synthesised from cheap, renewable feed stocks and significantly reduced pathogenicity compared to P. aeruginosa strains.
