Biotechnological Potential of Extremophiles: Environmental Solutions, Challenges, and Advancements.
Review in Biology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 papers.
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
Extremophiles are microorganisms capable of living on Earth in ecological niches characterized by peculiar conditions, including extreme temperatures and/or pH, high salt concentrations, and the presence of heavy metals. The development of unique structural and functional adaptation strategies has stimulated an increasing scientific interest since their discovery. The importance of extremophiles lies in their exploitability in significant bioprocesses with several biotechnological applications and their role as a fundamental source of numerous high-value-added biomolecules. This review aims to examine the diversity and specificities of extremophilic archaea and bacteria, with particular emphasis on their potential applications and development in biotechnology and biomedicine. The use of extremophiles and their extremozymes has allowed applications in several fields, such as bioremediation, sustainable agriculture, the recovery of bioactive molecules for use in bioenergy, biomedicine, and nanoparticle production. The comprehension and exploitation of the complex molecular mechanisms that enable life in extreme environments represent a challenge to mitigate current climate change problems and to invest in sustainable development towards a green transition.
