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

Microbial transglutaminase (MTG) has numerous industrial applications in the food and pharmaceutical sectors. Unfortunately, the thermostability of MTG is too low to tolerate the desired conditions used in many of these commercial processes. In a previous study, we used protein engineering to improve the thermostability of MTG. Specifically, we generated a T7C/E58C mutant of MTG from Streptomyces mobaraensis that displayed enhanced resistance to thermal inactivation. In this study, a rational structure-based approach was adopted to introduce a disulfide bridge to further increase the thermostability of MTG. In all, four new mutants, each containing a novel disulfide bond, were engineered. Of these four mutants, D3C/G283C showed the most promising thermostability with a significantly higher ∆T
