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

This study investigates the immobilization of crude cellulase from Aspergillus foetidus, produced through solid-state fermentation by different methods, including entrapment in agar cube, adsorption on agar xerogel, and adsorption on agar xerogel pretreated with glutaraldehyde. The immobilization efficiency achieved was 90.80%, 84.08%, and 84.23%, while enzyme activity obtained was 1.12 IU/g, 1.52 IU/g, and 1.48 IU/g for crude cellulase immobilized by entrapment in agar cube, adsorption on agar xerogel, and adsorption on agar xerogel pretreated with glutaraldehyde respectively. The immobilized crude cellulase was characterized, revealing an optimal temperature shift from 50 °C to 60 °C for agar xerogel-adsorbed crude cellulase, which improved its thermal stability. The pH optimum for free and all immobilized crude cellulase was observed at pH 4. Also, all immobilized crude cellulases retained significant activity even after multiple cycles, depicting their reusability. The enzyme kinetics observed were K
