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

Prodigiosin is a red-hued bacterial pigment with promising anticancer, antimalarial, antiparasitic, and antibacterial therapeutic properties. However, the commercial exploitation of this secondary metabolite is hindered due to high production cost and poor yield. In this study, the prodigiosin-producing Serratia marcescens SBL03 strain was isolated and identified. The pigment production capability was evaluated first in a complex commercial media, and thereafter in eight different agro-industrial waste materials as the sole source of nutrients. Among them, yellow mustard cake (YMC) medium titred 2.44 g/L prodigiosin, which was 7.62-fold higher than the higher pigment production achieved in the complex media, i.e., the nutrient broth (0.32 g/L of prodigiosin). The prodigiosin production was further enhanced through fermentation optimization exploring the Box-Behnken design (BBD) model and as high as 4.554 g/L titre of prodigiosin was achieved utilizing 1.06% w/v YMC at 28.3 °C temperature after 116 h and 42 min of incubation. This study is a small step towards a circular bioeconomy market with biovalorization of YMC medium for sustainable production of prodigiosin in a reasonable manner.
