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

Alginate-degrading bacteria or alginate lyases can be used to oligomerize alginate. In this study, an alginate-degrading bacterium with high alginolytic activity was successfully screened by using Sargassum fusiforme sludge. When the strain was grown on a plate containing sodium alginate, the transparent ring diameter (D) was 2.2 cm and the ratio (D/d) of transparent ring diameter to colony diameter (d) was 8.8. After 36 h in culture at a temperature of 28 °C shaken at 150 r/min, the enzymatic activity of the fermentation supernatant reached 160 U/mL, and the enzymatic activity of the bacterial precipitate harvested was 2,645 U/mL. The strain was named Cobetia sp. cqz5-12. Its genome is circular in shape, 4,209,007 bp in size, with a 62.36% GC content. It contains 3,498 predicted coding genes, 72 tRNA genes, and 21 rRNA genes. The functional annotations for the coding genes demonstrated that there were 181 coding genes in the genome related to carbohydrate transport and metabolism and 699 coding genes with unknown functions. Three putative coding genes, alg2107, alg2108 and alg2112, related to alginate degradation were identified by analyzing the carbohydrate active enzyme (CAZy) database. Moreover, proteins Alg2107 and Alg2112 were successfully expressed and exhibited alginate lyase activity.
