Development of alternative support system for viable count of cyanobacteria by most probable number method.
Article in Folia microbiologica, 2006. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
A technique was developed to evaluate alternative support systems to test tubes used in the standard most probable number technique, for simultaneous isolation and enumeration of cyanobacteria. Five different support systems were tested for their suitability in terms of accuracy, sensitivity, economics and ease of handling. PCR plates with 96 wells and carrying capacity of 300 microL per well were found to be most sensitive, besides being cost- and time-effective. This technique can also be useful for isolation of cyanobacteria, due to immobilization of colonies in the gel matrix and storage of samples at room temperature, without loss of viability for 5-6 weeks. This technique can help to process large sample size with ease--both for enumeration and isolation and can be extended for enumeration of other microorganisms from diverse sources.
