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

Phenol hydroxylase (PH) plays a central role in phenol biodegradation pathways. In this study, the enzymatic activity of PH in Candida tropicalis GY8 was evaluated following phenol-induced cultivation, and oxidation products were analyzed via high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). Two phenol hydroxylase genes, CtPHE1 and CtPHE2, were identified, and their expression patterns were examined using RT-qPCR. Functional analysis of the corresponding proteins was conducted by cloning and expressing the genes in Escherichia coli BL21(DE3). Enzymatic activity reached its maximum after 15 h of cultivation (p < 0.01), and phenol conversion to catechol was verified by HPLC. RT-qPCR results indicated peak transcript levels at 10 h, with CtPHE2 showing consistently higher expression than CtPHE1 at 5, 10, and 15 h (p < 0.01). Both recombinant proteins were capable of phenol degradation, with CtPHE2 exhibiting greater catalytic activity. These findings provide essential molecular information for advancing the understanding of phenol biodegradation mechanisms.
