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 cellulose (BC) is a versatile biopolymer of considerable biotechnological interest, with wide-ranging applications in biomedical, industrial, and engineering fields attributable to its exceptional structural and physicochemical properties. Despite its promise, the high cost of conventional production media and the challenge of tailoring BC structural characteristics remain critical bottlenecks limiting sustainable large-scale manufacturing. In the present study, a novel fermentation medium based on Glutamicibacter soli bread waste hydrolysate (BWH) was developed and statistically optimized for high-yield BC production by Komagataeibacter sp. strain HIJ12 EMCCN-4085, integrating circular bioeconomy principles through food waste valorization. One-variable-at-a-time (OVAT) screening identified glycerol and ethanol supplementation, incubation at 28 °C, pH 5.5, a 2-day-old inoculum, and an aeration ratio of zbroth: flask volume) as the key determinants governing BC biosynthesis. Subsequent Box-Behnken design-based Response Surface Methodology, supported by canonical and ridge analyses, refined glycerol concentration, inoculum size, and incubation time, yielding an exceptional BC dry weight of 39 g L
