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

backgroundCyanobacteria, a group of photosynthetic prokaryotes, are being increasingly explored for direct conversion of carbon dioxide to useful chemicals. However, efforts to engineer these photoautotrophs have resulted in low product titers. This may be ascribed to the bottlenecks in metabolic pathways, which need to be identified for rational engineering. We engineered the recently reported, fast-growing and robust cyanobacterium,

resultsBuilding on the previous report, expression of α-ketoglutarate decarboxylase, succinate semialdehyde dehydrogenase and phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase yielded a succinate titer of 0.6 g l

conclusionWhile the fast-growing strain PCC 11801 yielded a much higher titer than the model strain, the efficient photoautotrophy of this novel isolate needs to be harnessed further for the production of desired chemicals. Engineered strains of
