Biotransformation of Pesticides across Biological Systems: Molecular Mechanisms, Omics Insights, and Biotechnological Advances for Environmental Sustainability.
Review in ACS omega, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
The widespread application of pesticides such as organophosphates, organochlorides, and triazines in modern agriculture has led to their notable presence in soils, water bodies, and food chains, raising concerns about persistence, bioaccumulation, and adverse effects on nontarget organisms. Biotransformation, the enzymatic transformation of xenobiotic compounds by microorganisms, plants, and animals, plays a pivotal role in the degradation and detoxification of these chemicals. This review provides a comprehensive examination of the mechanisms, key enzyme classes (e.g., hydrolases, oxidoreductases, transferases), and environmental factors influencing pesticide biotransformation across different biological systems. Recent advances in omics technologies have revolutionized the understanding of microbial and plant metabolism, while synthetic biology offers opportunities for engineering enhanced degradation capabilities. The environmental fate of transformation products is also discussed, together with a critical analysis of challenges, unresolved questions, and future research directions, offering a holistic perspective on pesticide biotransformation as a key process for mitigating chemical pollution.
