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

Phytic acid is one of the common anti-nutritional factors in animal feeds, due to its chelating activity of metal ions and amino acids, so, phytase has been used for increasing the nutritional value of the animal feeds by releasing phosphorous. The stability and catalytic efficiency of this enzyme are the major challenges, so, the objective of this study was to purify and characterize phytase with relatively unique biochemical properties. Among the recovered fungal endophytes of Catharanthus roseus, Aspergillus terreus EFBL-AS PV412881.1 was recognized as the most potent phytase producing isolate. Upon nutritional optimization with the face-centered central composite design (FCCD), the productivity of phytase by A. terreus grown on wheat bran amended with 0.2% NaNO
