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

Growing concerns of environmental pollution and fossil resource shortage are major driving forces for bio-based production of chemicals traditionally from petrochemical industry. Dicarboxylic acids (DCAs) are important platform chemicals with large market and wide applications, and here the recent advances in bio-based production of straight-chain DCAs longer than C4 from biological approaches, especially by synthetic biology, are reviewed. A couple of pathways were recently designed and demonstrated for producing DCAs, even those ranging from C5 to C15, by employing respective starting units, extending units, and appropriate enzymes. Furthermore, in order to achieve higher production of DCAs, enormous efforts were made in engineering microbial hosts that harbored the biosynthetic pathways and in improving properties of biocatalytic elements to enhance metabolic fluxes toward target DCAs. Here we summarize and discuss the current advantages and limitations of related pathways, and also provide perspectives on synthetic pathway design and optimization for hyper-production of DCAs.
