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 development and implementation of microbial chassis cells have profound impacts on circular economy. Non-model bacterium Zymomonas mobilis is an excellent chassis owing to its extraordinary industrial characteristics. Here, the genome-scale metabolic model iZM516 is improved and updated by integrating enzyme constraints to simulate the dynamics of flux distribution and guide pathway design. We show that the innate dominant ethanol pathway of Z. mobilis restricts the titer and rate of these biochemicals. A dominant-metabolism compromised intermediate-chassis (DMCI) strategy is then developed through introducing low toxicity but cofactor imbalanced 2,3-butanediol pathway, and a recombinant D-lactate producer is constructed to produce more than 140.92 g/L and 104.6 g/L D-lactate (yield > 0.97 g/g) from glucose and corncob residue hydrolysate, respectively. Additionally, techno-economic analysis (TEA) and life cycle assessment (LCA) demonstrate the commercialization feasibility and greenhouse gas reduction capability of lignocellulosic D-lactate. This work thus establishes a paradigm for engineering recalcitrant microorganisms as biorefinery chassis.
