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

Halotolerant strains isolated from extreme environments rely on exopolysaccharides (EPSs) to maintain cellular integrity under high salinity and ensure survival under harsh conditions. Although continuous screening efforts have identified numerous EPS-producing halotolerant strains, research on the structural characteristics and physicochemical properties of their EPSs remains limited. In this study, an EPS-producing strain yielding 2.59 ± 0.15 g/L was isolated from saline soil and identified as Oceanobacillus sp. DT-Z6. The optimal conditions for key fermentation parameters were determined using a one-factor-at-a-time approach, resulting in a maximum EPS yield of 6.65 ± 0.06 g/L. EPSs produced under optimized conditions were extracted by ethanol precipitation and further purified using anion-exchange chromatography and gel filtration chromatography, yielding two novel EPS fractions, EPS6-0 and EPS6-1. The purified EPSs were characterized using monosaccharide composition analysis, Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, and nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy. The results indicated that both EPS6-0 and EPS6-1 were levan-type fructans containing β-(2, 6) linkages, with molecular weights of 1.17 × 10
