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

Bacillus cereus 0-9 is a biocontrol microorganism that antagonizes Gram-positive bacteria and pathogenic fungi, such as Staphylococcus aureus and Gaeumannomyces graminis, through the secretion of antimicrobial peptides. However, its low antibacterial activity limits its biocontrol application. In this study, a significant enhancement in antibacterial activity against S. aureus was achieved by overexpressing glucose dehydrogenase from Bacillus subtilis (BsGDH) in B. cereus 0-9, expanding the activity from 6.98 to 11.59 U/mL, representing a 66% improvement. To further improve its biocontrol capability, we aimed to improve the catalytic efficiency of BsGDH by screening 11 low-conserved residues in the protein's second-shell via conservation analysis and molecular docking. Following three rounds of saturation mutagenesis, the specific enzyme activity and K
