1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

Cyanobacteria have garnered interest as promising biological platforms for producing renewable biofuel, chemical feedstock, and bioactive molecules. For biotechnology applications, robust, well-characterized genetic tools are required for genetically modifying cyanobacteria, but these tools are often developed for specific model strains. Here, we used broad host-range RSF1010-based plasmids to characterize a set of orthogonal constitutive promoters in diverse cyanobacterial strains. The promoters are random variants of the synthetic IMPORTANCE: The use of cyanobacteria to produce renewable products will require engineered expression of many genes that affect cell growth, metabolism, and agronomic properties, leading to efficient production of biomass and desired products. Engineering the strength of gene transcription is an important element of overall gene expression levels. The set of constitutive promoters described here, with a wide range of expression strengths characterized in several diverse cyanobacterial strains, provides an important resource for genetic engineering required for biotechnology applications.
