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

Cholesterol oxidases (CHOXs) are flavin-adenine dinucleotide-dependent oxidoreductases with a range of biotechnological applications. There remains an urgent need to identify novel CHOX family members to meet the demands of enzyme markets worldwide. Here, we report the cloning, heterologous expression, and structural modeling of the cholesterol oxidase of Acinetobacter sp. strain RAMD. The cholesterol oxidase gene was cloned and expressed in pGEM®-T and pET-28a(+) vectors, respectively, using a gene-specific primer based on the putative cholesterol oxidase ORF of Acinetobacter baumannii strain AB030 (GenBank [gb] locus tag: IX87_05230). The obtained nucleotide sequence (1671 bp, gb: MK575469.2), translated to a protein designated choxAB (556 amino acids), was overexpressed as inclusion bodies (IBs) (MW ˜ 62 kDa) in 1 mm IPTG-induced Escherichia coli BL21 (DE3) Rosetta cells. The optimized expression conditions (1 mm IPTG with 2% [v/v] glycerol and at room temperature) yielded soluble active choxAB of 0.45 U·mL
