Expanding the Enzyme Repertoire for Sugar Nucleotide Epimerization: The CDP-Tyvelose 2-Epimerase from
Article in Applied and environmental microbiology, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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
Epimerization of sugar nucleotides is central to the structural diversification of monosaccharide building blocks for cellular biosynthesis. Epimerase applicability to carbohydrate synthesis can be limited, however, by the high degree of substrate specificity exhibited by most sugar nucleotide epimerases. Here, we discovered a promiscuous type of CDP-tyvelose 2-epimerase (TyvE)-like enzyme that promotes C2-epimerization in all nucleotide (CDP, UDP, GDP, ADP, TDP)-activated forms of d-glucose. This new epimerase, originating from
