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

Bacterial metal recovery is regarded as an environmentally friendly alternative to chemical hydrometallurgical waste metal recycling. However, conventional studies are generally conducted under neutral pH conditions, even though typical acidic metal leachate is strongly acidic. Previously, we isolated the bacterial strain Priestia sp. Mn7, which can grow under neutral pH and recover metals (Co, Cu, Li, Mn, and Ni) under pH 1.5. This study aimed to clarify this strain's metal tolerance and recovery mechanisms under pH 1.5 conditions. Metal recovery test was conducted using pH 1.5 solution without the five metal species described above. Enhanced expression of genes related to the sugar ATP binding cassette transporter and increased sugar concentration in metal-abundant solution indicated that the strain expels sugar from the cell as a metal stress response under strongly acidic conditions. Dead cells did not recover metals except for Mn. Additionally, the recovered metals were distributed on the cell surface. These results indicated that the strain recovers tested metals via bioprecipitation related to sugar expulsion. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first study to elucidate the metal tolerance and recovery mechanisms of acid-tolerant bacteria under pH 1.5, further contributing to the understanding and utilization of acid-tolerant bacteria.
