The role of lignin in 17β-estradiol biodegradation: insights from cellular characteristics and lipidomics.
Article in Microbial cell factories, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
17β-estradiol (E2) is an endocrine disruptor, and even trace concentrations (ng/L) of environmental estrogen can interfere with the endocrine system of organisms. Lignin holds promise in enhancing the microbial degradation E2. However, the mechanisms by which lignin facilitates this process remain unclear, which is crucial for understanding complex environmental biodegradation in nature. In this study, we conducted a comprehensive analysis using cellular and lipidomics approaches to investigate the relationship between E2-degrading strain, Rhodococcus sp. RCBS9, and lignin. Our findings demonstrate that lignin significantly enhances E2 degradation efficiency, reaching 94.28% within 5 days with the addition of 0.25 mM lignin. This enhancement is associated with increased microbial growth and activity, reduced of membrane damages, and alleviation of oxidative stress. Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR) results indicate that lignin addition alters lipid peaks. Consequently, by analyzing lipid metabolism changes, we further elucidate how lignin addition promotes E2 degradation.
