Biodegradation of Amphipathic Fluorinated Peptides Reveals a New Bacterial Defluorinating Activity and a New Source of Natural Organofluorine Compounds.
Article in Environmental science & technology, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 13 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
Three peptides comprising mono-, di-, and tri-fluoroethylglycine (MfeGly, DfeGly, and TfeGly) residues alternating with lysine were digested by readily available proteases (elastase, bromelain, trypsin, and proteinase K). The degree of degradation depended on the enzyme employed and the extent of fluorination. Incubation of the peptides with a microbial consortium from garden soil resulted in degradation, yielding fluoride ions. Further biodegradation studies conducted with the individual fluorinated amino acids demonstrated that the degree of defluorination followed the sequence MfeGly > DfeGly > TfeGly. Enrichment of the soil bacteria employing MfeGly as a sole carbon and energy source resulted in the isolation of a bacterium, which was identified as
