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

We isolated two novel bacterial strains, active against the environmental pollutant acetaminophen/Paracetamol®. Streptomyces chrestomyceticus (symbol RS2) and Flavofuscus (symbol M33) collected from El-Natrun Valley, Egypt-water, sediment, and sand samples, taxonomically characterized using a transmission electron microscope (TEM). Genotypic identification, based on 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis followed by BLAST alignment, were deposited on the NCBI as 2 novel strains https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/nuccore/OM665324  and https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/nuccore/OM665325 . The phylogenetic tree was constructed. Acetaminophen secondary or intermediate product's chemical structure was identified by GC/LC MS. Some selected acetaminophen secondary-product extracts and derived compounds were examined against a panel of test micro-organisms and fortunately showed a good anti-microbial effect. In silico chemo-informatics Swiss ADMET evaluation was used in the selected bio-degradation extracts for absorption (gastric), distribution (to CNS), metabolism (hepatic), excretion (renal), and finally not toxic, being non-mutagenic/teratogenic or genotoxic, virtually. Moreover, in vitro cytotoxic activity of these selected bio-degradation secondary products was examined against HepG2 and MCF7 cancer cell lines, where M33 and RS2 extract effects on acetaminophen/paracetamol bio-degradation products were safe, with higher IC50 on HepG2 and MCF7 than the acetaminophen/paracetamol IC50 of 108.5 μg/ml. Moreover, an in vivo oral acute single-dose toxicity experiment was conducted, to confirm these in vitro and in silico lower toxicity (better safety) than acetaminophen/paracetamol.
