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
The cleaning activity of surface-active agents such as rhamnolipids (RLs) requires utmost effectiveness and is employed abundantly in various industries, particularly laundry cleaning, detergents, and cosmetics. In the current study, RLs were produced from Pseudomonas aeruginosa isolated from oil-contaminated soil using a minimal medium amended with agro-industrial by-products of refinery vegetable oil wastes (comprising of unsaturated types of fatty acids as determined by GC analysis) and dairy whey. The results showed that an amount of 5.72 g/L of RLs were obtained, while lower concentrations were obtained using chemically defined carbon sources. Ten congeners of mono- and di-RLs were detected by LC-MS, and they reduced the surface tension of water to 26 mN/m with a critical micelle concentration of 33 mg/L. Furthermore, the produced RLs showed promising cleaning and detergency properties in the removal of different stains on tested fabrics with a Stain Removal Index (SRI) of 17.45%. Moreover, an efficient cleaning was obtained when RLs were applied to a liquid detergent formulation model, and a cleaning power (∆E) of 245.95 and SRI of 36.28% were achieved. The present work showed that the produced RLs could be exploited as a powerful and alternative eco-friendly cleaning agent in many industries.
