Microbial biochemical pathways of arsenic biotransformation and their application for bioremediation.
Review in Folia microbiologica, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
Arsenic is a ubiquitous toxic metalloid, the concentration of which is beyond WHO safe drinking water standards in many areas of the world, owing to many natural and anthropogenic activities. Long-term exposure to arsenic proves lethal for plants, humans, animals, and even microbial communities in the environment. Various sustainable strategies have been developed to mitigate the harmful effects of arsenic which include several chemical and physical methods, however, bioremediation has proved to be an eco-friendly and inexpensive technique with promising results. Many microbes and plant species are known for arsenic biotransformation and detoxification. Arsenic bioremediation involves different pathways such as uptake, accumulation, reduction, oxidation, methylation, and demethylation. Each of these pathways has a certain set of genes and proteins to carry out the mechanism of arsenic biotransformation. Based on these mechanisms, various studies have been conducted for arsenic detoxification and removal. Genes specific for these pathways have also been cloned in several microorganisms to enhance arsenic bioremediation. This review discusses different biochemical pathways and the associated genes which play important roles in arsenic redox reactions, resistance, methylation/demethylation, and accumulation. Based on these mechanisms, new methods can be developed for effective arsenic bioremediation.
