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

The practical applications of enzymes often require their immobilization for multiple recycling or long-term running. However, practically efficient enzyme immobilization methods are lacking. Herein, we present an enzyme immobilization approach by engineering a porous "interphase" between water and oil around the surfaces of Pickering emulsion droplets. The designed "interphase" consists of a porous, nanometer-thick silica shell serving as a scaffold to incorporate enzymes. Within this "interphase", enzymes can simultaneously be in contact with enzyme-preferred aqueous microenvironment and the oil phase containing organic reactants. The porous "interphase" with its tunable structure and properties allows modulation of transport of reactants, crudely akin to a cell membrane, and of local concentration of reactants. As a proof of the concept, we showcase that our "interphase" strategy is very effective in immobilization of Candida antarctica lipase B (CALB) for continuous-flow olefin epoxidation. Long-term stabilization (800 h), 16-fold increase in catalysis efficiency relative to batch reactions, and 99% H
