Characterization and GC-MS-Based Identification of Possible PVC Degradation Pathways of Bacteria for Sustainable Microplastic Bioremediation.
Article in Microorganisms, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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.
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
Polyvinyl chloride (PVC), due to its persistent nature and the hazardous effects associated with chlorine content, poses global challenges like accelerated environmental pollution, public health crises and an increased economic burden. Its sustainable decontamination from the environment could be possible with the assistance of bacteria. The current study was initiated to achieve this sustainable goal. PVC-degrading bacteria were isolated via the serial dilution method using minimal salt medium (MSM) supplemented with PVC as a sole carbon source and characterized via 16S RNA gene sequencing analysis, growth curve and PVC strip weight loss assays, antibiotic sensitivity profiling, FTIR and GC-MS-based metabolic profiling. Five isolates,
