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

Keratinases are a group of proteases of great industrial significance. To take full advantage of Bacillus species as an inherent superior microbial producer of proteases, we performed the ribosome engineering to improve the keratinase synthesis capacity of the wild-type Bacillus thuringiensis by inducing streptomycin resistance. Mutant Bt(Str-O) was identified as a stable keratinase overproducer. Comparative characterization of the two strains revealed that, although the resistance to Streptomycin increased by eight-fold in MIC, the mutant's resistance to other commonly used antibiotics was not affected. Furthermore, the mutant exhibited an enhanced keratinase synthesis (1.5-fold) when cultured in a liquid LB medium. In the whole feather degradation experiment, the mutant could secret twofold keratinase into the medium, reaching 640 U/mL per 10
