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

A targeted method for discovering cinnamoyl-containing nonribosomal peptides (CCNPs), a unique class of bioactive compounds, was devised by using cinnamoyl isomerase, a key enzyme in the biosynthesis of the cinnamoyl moiety, as a genome mining probe. A total of 39 hit strains were obtained, including 35 from polymerase chain reaction-based screening of the in-house bacterial library (2.5% of 1400 strains) targeting the cinnamoyl isomerase-encoding gene and 4 from the genome mining of online databases. Sequence similarity networking and phylogenetic analyses of the isomerase amplicons (∼530 bp) classified the CCNPs into three major substructure-based groups (Z-, E-, and M-type CCNPs) and revealed distinct clade-structure relationships (13 clades). To overcome the challenge of silent biosynthetic gene clusters, we activated these clusters by overexpressing conserved cluster-situated LuxR regulators combined with extensive culture optimization. CCNP production was metabolomically detected in the bacterial extracts by using the characteristic UV absorption and MS/MS fragments of cinnamoyl moieties. CCNP production was observed in 20 of the 39 hit strains, resulting in the isolation of 6 new CCNPs, including oxy-skyllamycin B (
