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

Stable and efficient hydrocarbon degrading microbial consortia were developed from a refinery sludge through nitrate amendment for their application in enhanced bioremediation of petroleum contaminated waste. Nitrate induced biostimulation of refinery sludge resulted in increased abundance of hydrocarbon degrading Rhodocyclaceae, Xanthomonadaceae, Syntrophaceae and Comamonadaceae members. Repeated subculturing of nitrate stimulated communities in crude oil supplemented basal medium was done under aerobic and anaerobic conditions. Aerobically enriched consortia (composed of Pseudomonadaceae, Pseudoxanthomonadaceae and unclassified Comamonadaceae) showed their ability to utilize alkanes, aromatics and crude oil as growth substrates. Anaerobically enriched consortium was predominated by Bacillaceae, Pseudomonadaceae, Xanthomonadaceae, Porphyromonadaceae and Comamonadaceae members. Anaerobic consortium was found to be relatively less efficient in terms of TPH (total petroleum hydrocarbons) degradation compared to its aerobic counterpart. These enriched microbial consortia were finally tested for their biodegradation performance and stability during bioremediation of highly contaminated refinery sludge using different strategies. A 30 days microcosm based bioremediation trial showed that bioaugmentation of aerobic cultures with refinery sludge was more effective in TPH degradation (~ 65% degradation) compared to the anaerobic consortium (only 36% TPH degradation) and a combination of bioaugmentation and nitrate amendment with sludge resulted in enhanced hydrocarbon attenuation (up to 86% TPH degradation). Subsequent community analysis at the end of bioremediation trial confirmed the stability of the added microbial populations. Thus, the strategy of bioaugmentation of specially enriched native microbial populations in combination with nitrate amendment was successfully used for the enhanced bioremediation of petroleum hydrocarbon contaminated refinery waste.
