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

5-Aminopentanol (5-AP) is a valuable amino alcohol with potential applications in polymer synthesis and bioplastics. Conventional production methods rely on petroleum-based feedstocks and metal catalysts, which raise environmental and sustainability concerns. In this study, a de novo biosynthetic pathway for 5-AP production from L-lysine was developed in Escherichia coli. The engineered pathway consisted of lysine decarboxylase 2 (LdcC), putrescine aminotransferase (PatA), and tested aldehyde reductase (YahK, YihU, YqhD). Among the tested reductases, aldehyde reductase exhibited the highest catalytic efficiency, producing 44.5 ± 2.6 mM of 5-AP (0.44 ± 0.03 mol
