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

The drive for a circular bioeconomy has resulted in a great demand for renewable, biobased chemicals. We present a one-pot biocatalytic cascade reaction for the production of racemic syringaresinol, a lignan with applications as a nutraceutical and in polymer chemistry. The process consumes dihydrosinapyl alcohol, which can be produced renewably from the lignocellulosic material. To achieve this, a variant of eugenol oxidase was engineered for the oxidation of dihydrosinapyl alcohol into sinapyl alcohol with good conversion and chemoselectivity. The crystal structure of the engineered oxidase revealed the molecular basis of the influence of the mutations on the chemoselectivity of the oxidation of dihydrosinapyl alcohol. By using horseradish peroxidase, the subsequent oxidative dimerization of sinapyl alcohol into syringaresinol was achieved. Conditions for the one-pot, two-enzyme synthesis were optimized, and a high yield of syringaresinol was achieved by cascading the oxidase and peroxidase steps in a stepwise fashion. This study demonstrates the efficient production of syringaresinol from a compound that can be renewed by reductive catalytic fractionation of lignocellulose, providing a biocatalytic route for generating a valuable compound from lignin.
