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

backgroundBiological denitrification has been commonly adopted for the removal of nitrogen from sewage effluents. However, due to the low temperature during winter, microorganisms in the wastewater biological treatment unit usually encounter problems such as slow cell growth and low enzymatic efficiency. Hence, the isolation and screening of cold-tolerant aerobic denitrifying bacteria (ADB) have recently drawn attention. In our previous study, two Pseudomonas strains PMCC200344 and PMCC200367 isolated from Arctic soil demonstrated strong denitrification ability at low temperatures. The two Arctic strains show potential for biological nitrogen removal from sewage in cold environments. However, the genome sequences of these two organisms have not been reported thus far.

resultsHere, the basic characteristics and genetic diversity of strains PMCC200344 and PMCC200367 were described, together with the complete genomes and comparative genomic results. The genome of Pseudomonas sp. PMCC200344 was composed of a circular chromosome of 6,478,166 bp with a G + C content of 58.60% and contained a total of 5,853 genes. The genome of Pseudomonas sp. PMCC200367 was composed of a circular chromosome of 6,360,061 bp with a G + C content of 58.68% and contained 5,801 genes. Not only prophages but also genomic islands were identified in the two Pseudomonas strains. No plasmids were observed. All genes of a complete set of denitrification pathways as well as various putative cold adaptation and heavy metal resistance genes in the genomes were identified and analyzed. These genes were usually detected on genomic islands in bacterial genomes.

conclusionsThese analytical results provide insights into the genomic basis of microbial denitrification in cold environments, indicating the potential of Arctic Pseudomonas strains in nitrogen removal from sewage effluents at low temperatures.
