Uncovering the potential of biofabricated Ananas comosus peel selenium nanoparticles for antibacterial, antibiofilm, suppression of virulence genes (can and LuxS), anticancer, and antioxidant properties.
Article in BMC biotechnology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 14 papers.
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.
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
This research employed Ananas comosus (pineapple) peel waste (PPW) extract for producing selenium nanoparticles (SeNPs) using an ecologically feasible way, aimed at various medical uses. Our analysis demonstrated that the PPWextract was a significant supplier of several important phytochemicals. The synthesized SeNPs were comprehensively characterized via XRD, FTIR, SEM, EDX, UV-Vis, and HRTEM which exhibiting a spherical shape with dimensions between 33 and 73 nm. Additional experimental assessments of SeNPs were carried out to ascertain their suitability for usage in biology applications. The findings suggest that obtained SeNPs may effectively combat multiple bacteria, including S. aureus, E. coli, B. subtilis, E. faecalis, and K. pneumonia. Additionally, SeNPs exhibited antibiofilm capacity for both MRSA and E. coli with inhibition reported to be 64.8% and 54.4% at 100 µg/mL respectively. In the range of 62.5-31.25 µg/mL SeNPs reduced expression of two essential genes required for S. aureus to generate biofilms, cna (0.9 fold change), and quorum sensing gene LuxS of E. coli (4.2 folds of control to 3.4 folds of treated) in comparison to the RecA gene. The antioxidant capacity of SeNPs reported an IC
