Biodegradation of malathion by Micrococcus sp. strain MAGK3: kinetics and degradation fragments.
Article in Archives of microbiology, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Malathion is widely used as an agricultural insecticide, but its toxic nature makes it a serious environmental contaminant. To screen indigenous bacteria for malathion degradation, a strain MAGK3 capable of utilizing malathion as its sole carbon and energy source was isolated from Pennisetum glaucum agricultural soil. Based on morphological and biochemical characteristics and 16S rDNA sequence analysis, strain MAGK3 was identified as Micrococcus aloeverae. The strain was cultured in the presence of malathion under aerobic and energy-restricting conditions, and it grew well in MSM containing malathion (1000 µl/L), showing the highest specific growth rate at 500 µl/L
