Elucidating biodegradation of dimethyl terephthalate by two
Article in Metabolic engineering communications, 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
Dimethyl terephthalate (DMT) serves as the precursor in the production of polyethylene terephthalate, polytrimethylene terephthalate, and polybutylene terephthalate. The widespread use of DMT in the polymer industry and its ubiquitous existence in end products raise alarms about its potential harm to humans and animals. DMT can enter the environment through the degradation of polymers and their end products, and cause endocrine disruption, oxidative stress, and an elevated risk of cancer. In recent years, DMT has also gained renewed interest in its potential for plastic recycling and upcycling. In this study, we identified two strains of
