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

Cytochrome P450 enzymes, or P450s, are haem monooxygenases renowned for their ability to insert one atom from molecular oxygen into an exceptionally broad range of substrates while reducing the other atom to water. However, some substrates including many organohalide and nitro compounds present little or no opportunity for oxidation. Under hypoxic conditions P450s can perform reductive reactions, contributing electrons to drive reductive elimination reactions. P450s can catalyse dehalogenation and denitration of a range of environmentally persistent pollutants including halogenated hydrocarbons and nitroamine explosives. P450-mediated reductive dehalogenations were first discovered in the context of human pharmacology but have since been observed in a variety of organisms. Additionally, P450-mediated reductive denitration of synthetic explosives has been discovered in bacteria that inhabit contaminated soils. This review will examine the distribution of P450-mediated reductive dehalogenations and denitrations in nature and discuss synthetic biology approaches to developing P450-based reagents for bioremediation.
