The conundrum in enzymatic reactions related to biosynthesis of d-amino acids in bacteria.
Article in The FEBS journal, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
d-Amino acids (d-AAs) are key components of the peptidoglycan matrix in bacterial cells. Various bacterial species are known to produce d-AAs by using different enzymes, such as highly specific and broad-spectrum racemases. Miyamoto et al. studied the biosynthesis of d-glutamate in the hyperthermophile and anaerobic Gram-negative bacterium, Thermotoga maritima, which does not possess a broad-spectrum racemase. The investigated TM0831 enzyme catalyzes both a d-amino acid aminotransferase reaction producing d-glutamate and an amino acid racemase activity aimed at generating d-aspartate and d-glutamate from the corresponding l-enantiomers. TM0831 represents an example of natural molecular evolution process favoring the enzyme versatility. Comment on: https://doi.org/10.1111/febs.16452.
