Identification and characterization of a novel carboxylesterase EstQ7 from a soil metagenomic library.
Article in Archives of microbiology, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
A novel lipolytic gene, estq7, was identified from a fosmid metagenomic library. The recombinant enzyme EstQ7 consists of 370 amino acids with an anticipated molecular mass of 42 kDa. Multiple sequence alignments showed that EstQ7 contained a pentapeptide motif GHSMG, and a putative catalytic triad Ser174-Asp306-His344. Interestingly, EstQ7 was found to have very little similarity to the characterized lipolytic enzymes. Phylogenetic analysis revealed that EstQ7 may be a member of a novel family of lipolytic enzymes. Biochemical characterization of the recombinant enzyme revealed that it constitutes a slightly alkalophilic, moderate thermophilic and highly active carboxylesterase against short-chain fatty acid esters with optimum temperature 50 ℃ and pH 8.2. The Km and kcat values toward p-nitrophenyl acetate were determined to be 0.17 mM and 1910s
