Characterisation of a potential probiotic strain Paracoccus marcusii KGP and its application in whey bioremediation.
Article in Folia microbiologica, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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
Whey, the main by-product obtained from the manufacture of cheese, which contains a very high organic load (mainly due to the lactose content), is not easily degradable and creates concern over environmental issues. Hydrolysis of lactose present in whey and conversion of whey lactose into valuable products such as bioethanol, sweet syrup, and animal feed offers the possibility of whey bioremediation. The increasing need for bioremediation in the dairy industry has compelled researchers to search for a novel source of β-galactosidase with diverse properties. In the present study, the bacterium Paracoccus marcusii KGP producing β-galactosidase was subjected to morphological, biochemical, and probiotic characterisation. The bacterial isolate was found to be non-pathogenic and resistant to low pH (3 and 4), bile salts (0.2%), salt (10%), pepsin (at pH 3), and pancreatin (at pH 8). Further characterisation revealed that the bacteria have a good auto-aggregation ability (40% at 24 h), higher hydrophobicity (chloroform-60%, xylene-50%, and ethyl acetate-40%) and a broad spectrum of antibiotic susceptibility. The highest growth of P. marcusii KGP was achieved at pH 7 and 28 °C, and the yeast extract, galactose, and MgSO
