High efficiency rare earth element bioleaching with systems biology guided engineering of Gluconobacter oxydans.
Article in Communications biology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 12 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Biological methods are a promising route for the environmentally-friendly production of rare earth elements (REE), which are essential for sustainable energy and defense technologies. In earlier work we identified the key genetic mechanisms contributing to the REE-bioleaching capability of Gluconobacter oxydans B58. Here we have targeted two of these mechanisms to generate a high-efficiency bioleaching strain of G. oxydans. Disruption of the phosphate-specific transport system through a clean deletion of pstS constitutively turns on the phosphate starvation response, yielding a much more acidic biolixiviant, and increasing bioleaching by up to 30%. Coupling knockout of pstS with the over-expression of the mgdh membrane-bound glucose dehydrogenase gene using the P
