Recent developments in the identification and biosynthesis of antitumor drugs derived from microorganisms.
Review in Engineering microbiology, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 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
Secondary metabolites in microorganisms represent a resource for drug discovery and development. In particular, microbial-derived antitumor agents are in clinical use worldwide. Herein, we provide an overview of the development of classical antitumor drugs derived from microorganisms. Currently used drugs and drug candidates are comprehensively described in terms of pharmacological activities, mechanisms of action, microbial sources, and biosynthesis. We further discuss recent studies that have demonstrated the utility of gene-editing technologies and synthetic biology tools for the identification of new gene clusters, expansion of natural products, and elucidation of biosynthetic pathways. This review summarizes recent progress in the discovery and development of microbial-derived anticancer compounds with emphasis on biosynthesis.
