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

Pullulanase, a starch debranching enzyme, is required for the preparation of high glucose/maltose syrup from starch. In order to expand its narrow reaction conditions and improve its application value, Bacillus naganoensis pullulanase (PulA) was mutated by site-directed mutagenesis and the biochemical characteristics of the mutants were studied. The mutant PulA-N3 with mutations at asparagine 467, 492 and 709 residues was obtained. It displayed the activity maximum at 60 °C and pH 4.5 and exceeded 90% activities between 45 and 60 °C and from pH 4.0 to pH 5.5, which was improved greatly compared with wild-type PulA. Its thermostability and acidic pH stability were also remarkably improved. Its catalytic rate (k
