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

Resolvin E2 (RvE2), 5S,18R-dihydroxyeicosapentaenoic acid (5S,18R-DiHEPE), and 18S-RvE2 (5S,18S-DiHEPE) are specialized pro-resolving mediators that function in the resolution of inflammation. These SPMs have been produced in trace amounts from eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) using acetylated cyclooxygenase-2 or cytochrome P450 and 5-lipoxygenase (5-LOX) via 18R- and 18S-hydroxyeicosapentaenoic acid (18R- and 18S-HEPE) intermediates. In this study, we engineered 15R-LOX from Sorangium cellulosum and 15S-LOX from Archangium violaceum into 18R-LOX (L423W/L424M/L568M variant of 15R-LOX) and 18S-LOX (L429W/L430M/L575M variant of 15S-LOX), respectively, via structure-guided enzyme engineering. The engineered 18R-LOX converted EPA into 72.5% 18R-HEPE and 27.5% 15R-HEPE, while the engineered 18S-LOX formed 81.8% 18S-HEPE and 18.2% 15S-HEPE. Escherichia coli expressing the engineered 18R- or 18S-LOX converted 4.0 or 3.0 mM EPA into 2.0 mM (641 mg/L) 18R-HEPE or 1.8 mM (577 mg/L) 18S-HEPE in 20 min, respectively, achieving concentrations that were > 10
