Assessment of Four Engineered PET Degrading Enzymes Considering Large-Scale Industrial Applications.
Article in ACS catalysis, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 88 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
In recent years, enzymatic recycling of the widely used polyester polyethylene terephthalate (PET) has become a complementary solution to current thermomechanical recycling for colored, opaque, and mixed PET. A large set of promising hydrolases that depolymerize PET have been found and enhanced by worldwide initiatives using various methods of protein engineering. Despite the achievements made in these works, it remains difficult to compare enzymes' performance and their applicability to large-scale reactions due to a lack of homogeneity between the experimental protocols used. Here, we pave the way for a standardized enzymatic PET hydrolysis protocol using reaction conditions relevant for larger scale hydrolysis and apply these parameters to four recently reported PET hydrolases (LCC
