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

The phosphonate class of natural products have received significant interests in the post-genomic era due to the relative ease with which their biosynthetic genes may be identified and the resultant final products be characterized. Recent large-scale studies of the elucidation and distributions of phosphonate pathways have provided a robust landscape for deciphering the underlying biosynthetic logic. A recurrent theme in phosphonate biosynthetic pathways is the interweaving of enzymatic reactions across different routes, which enables diversification to elaborate chemically novel scaffolds. Here, we provide a few vignettes of how Nature has utilized both convergent and divergent biosynthetic strategies to compile pathways for production of novel phosphonates. These examples illustrate how common intermediates may either be generated or intercepted to diversify chemical scaffolds and provides a starting point for both biotechnological and synthetic biological applications towards new phosphonates by similar combinatorial approaches.
