Isolation, screening and molecular characterization of biosurfactant producing bacteria from soil samples of auto repair shops.
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 13 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 total of 107 bacterial strains were isolated from used motor oil contaminated soil samples from auto-repair shops. The isolates were evaluated for their biosurfactant production abilities by employing a series of screening techniques, including hemolytic assay, oil displacement assay, drop-collapse assay, and parafilm M test. The potential biosurfactant producers were characterized by 16S rDNA-based molecular tools and were identified as Proteus mirabilis, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Enterobacter cloacae, Micrococcus sp., Citrobacter sp., and Bacillus sp. The widest clearing zone with a diameter of 6.5 cm was observed upon the addition of cell-free supernatant (CFS) from P. mirabilis SLM-B52 as assayed by the oil displacement test. Remarkable emulsification indexes, equivalent to 42% (against kerosene), 53% (against xylenes), and 50% (against benzene and toluene), were recorded by the CFSs of Micrococcus sp. SLM-B28, P. mirabilis SLM-B85, and K. pneumoniae SLM-B46, respectively. Du Noüy tensiometer analysis showed that biosurfactant produced by P. mirabilis SLM-B52 has the highest surface tension reduction capacity with a value of 30.5 mN m
