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

Heavy metals are among the key environmental contaminants which pose a threat to all the living organisms. Bacteria can help detoxify these elements by a range of mechanisms associated to bacterial metabolic processes. One of them is biotransformation, which consists in change in the oxidative state of an element, often followed by its absorption or precipitation. Pseudomonadota-a vast and diverse bacterial phylum-belong to the best studied microorganisms involved in the process. Our review shows their contribution to the redox-based detoxification of four trace elements: chromium, manganese, mercury, and arsenic. Based on a comprehensive literature survey, we try to assess the importance of individual orders and selected genera in redox transformations; we also identify potential risks associated with the use of Pseudomonadota in bioremediation and suggest the most promising directions for future studies and applications. The review leads to a conclusion that the potential of non-pathogenic rhizobia Hyphomicrobiales is particularly worth further exploration.
