Biocatalytic Production of a Nylon 6 Precursor from Caprolactone in Continuous Flow.
Article in ChemSusChem, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
6-Aminocaproic acid (6ACA) is a key building block and an attractive precursor of caprolactam, which is used to synthesize nylon 6, one of the most common polymers manufactured nowadays. (Bio)-production of platform chemicals from renewable feedstocks is instrumental to tackle climate change and decrease fossil fuel dependence. Here, the cell-free biosynthesis of 6ACA from 6-hydroxycaproic acid was achieved using a co-immobilized multienzyme system based on horse liver alcohol dehydrogenase, Halomonas elongata transaminase, and Lactobacillus pentosus NADH oxidase for in-situ cofactor recycling, with >90 % molar conversion (m.c.) The integration of a step to synthesize hydroxy-acid from lactone by immobilized Candida antarctica lipase B resulted in >80 % m.c. of ϵ-caprolactone to 6ACA, >20 % of δ-valerolactone to 5-aminovaleric acid, and 30 % of γ-butyrolactone to γ-aminobutyric acid in one-pot batch reactions. Two serial packed-bed reactors were set up using these biocatalysts and applied to the continuous-flow synthesis of 6ACA from ϵ-caprolactone, achieving a space-time yield of up to 3.31 g
