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

Medium chain length polyhydroxyalkanoates (mcl-PHA) are elastomeric biodegradable bioplastics produced by a few bacteria. The large-scale mcl-PHA production remains limited by the low yield of bacterial strains and biomass reduction due to prolonged nutrient limitation in the media. In the present study, Pseudomonas aeruginosa MCC 5300 produced mcl-PHA copolymer of about 39.4% cell dry weight (CDW) at a short duration of 24 h of growth in tryptic soy broth media containing oleic acid and the PHA content was enhanced up to 66.4% CDW in the presence of azide. The production of mcl-PHA at such a short duration was not reported previously in nutrient-enriched conditions. The application of azide enhanced mcl-PHA production in the bacteria. Oleic acid shifted the electron transport chain (ETC) from the cytochrome c pool to the ubiquinol pool. The inhibition of bo
