Constructing Escherichia coli co-display systems for biodegradation of polyethylene terephthalate.
Article in Bioresources and bioprocessing, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
backgroundThe accumulation of fast-growing polyethylene terephthalate (PET) wastes has posed numerous threats to the environments and human health. Enzymatic degradation of PET is a promising approach for PET waste treatment. Currently, the efficiency of various PET biodegradation systems requires further improvements.
resultsIn this work, we engineered whole cell systems with co-display of strong adhesive proteins and the most active PETase for PET biodegradation in E. coli cells. Adhesive proteins of cp52k and mfp-3 and Fast-PETase were simultaneously displayed on the surfaces of E. coli cells, and the resulting cells displaying mfp-3 showed 50% increase of adhesion ability compared to those without adhesive proteins. Consequently, the degradation rate of E. coli cells co-displaying mfp-3 and Fast-PETase for amorphous PET exceeded 15% within 24 h, exhibiting fast and thorough PET degradation.
conclusionsThrough the engineering of co-display systems in E. coli cells, PET degradation efficiency was significantly increased compared to E. coli cells with sole display of Fast-PETase and free enzyme. This feasible E. coli co-display system could be served as a convenient tool for extending the treatment options for PET biodegradation.
