Advantages of Using Extremophilic Bacteria for the Biosynthesis of Metallic Nanoparticles and Its Potential for Rare Earth Element Recovery.
Review in Frontiers in microbiology, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 13 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
The exceptional potential for application that metallic nanoparticles (MeNPs) have shown, has steadily increased their demand in many different scientific and technological areas, including the biomedical and pharmaceutical industry, bioremediation, chemical synthesis, among others. To face the current challenge for transitioning toward more sustainable and ecological production methods, bacterial biosynthesis of MeNPs, especially from extremophilic microorganisms, emerges as a suitable alternative with intrinsic added benefits like improved stability and biocompatibility. Currently, biogenic nanoparticles of different relevant metals have been successfully achieved using different bacterial strains. However, information about biogenic nanoparticles from rare earth elements (REEs) is very scarce, in spite of their great importance and potential. This mini review discusses the current understanding of metallic nanoparticle biosynthesis by extremophilic bacteria, highlighting the relevance of searching for bacterial species that are able to biosynthesize RRE nanoparticles.
