Functional Metagenomics as a Tool to Tap into Natural Diversity of Valuable Biotechnological Compounds.
Article in Methods in molecular biology (Clifton, N.J.), 2023. 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
The marine ecosystem covers more than 70% of the world's surface, and oceans represent a source of varied types of organisms due to the diversified environment. Consequently, the marine environment is an exceptional depot of novel bioactive natural products, with structural and chemical features generally not found in terrestrial habitats. Here, in particular, microbes represent a vast source of unknown and probably new physiological characteristics. They have evolved during extended evolutionary processes of physiological adaptations under various environmental conditions and selection pressures. However, to date, the biodiversity of marine microbes and the versatility of their bioactive compounds and metabolites have not been fully explored. Thus, metagenomic tools are required to exploit the untapped marine microbial diversity and their bioactive compounds. This chapter focuses on function-based marine metagenomics to screen for bioactive molecules of value for biotechnology. Functional metagenomic strategies are described, including sampling in the marine environment, constructing marine metagenomic large-insert libraries, and examples on function-based screens for quorum quenching and anti-biofilm activities.
