Plant Growth-Promoting Rhizobacteria (PGPR) Assisted Bioremediation of Heavy Metal Toxicity.
Review in Applied biochemistry and biotechnology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 41 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
Due to a variety of natural and anthropogenic processes, heavy metal toxicity of soil constitutes a substantial hazard to all living beings in the environment. The heavy metals alter the soil properties, which directly or indirectly influence the agriculture systems. Thus, plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR)-assisted bioremediation is a promising, eco-friendly, and sustainable method for eradicating heavy metals. PGPR cleans up the heavy metal-contaminated environment using various approaches including efflux systems, siderophores and chelation, biotransformation, biosorption, bioaccumulation, precipitation, ACC deaminase activity, biodegradation, and biomineralization methods. These PGPRs have been found effective to bioremediate the heavy metal-contaminated soil through increased plant tolerance to metal stress, improved nutrient availability in soil, alteration of heavy metal pathways, and by producing some chemical compounds like siderophores and chelating ions. Many heavy metals are non-degradable; hence, another remediation approach with a broader scope of contamination removal is needed. This article also briefly emphasized the role of genetically modified PGPR strains which improve the soil's degradation rate of heavy metals. In this regard, genetic engineering, a molecular approach, could improve bioremediation efficiency and be helpful. Thus, the ability of PGPRs can aid in heavy metal bioremediation and promote a sustainable agricultural soil system.
