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

Fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) with rRNA-targeted oligonucleotide probes is an essential tool for the cultivation-independent identification of microbes within environmental and clinical samples. However, one of the major constraints of conventional FISH is the very limited number of different target organisms that can be detected simultaneously with standard epifluorescence or confocal laser scanning microscopy. Recently, this limitation has been overcome via an elegant approach termed combinatorial labeling and spectral imaging FISH (CLASI-FISH) (23). This technique, however, suffers compared to conventional FISH from an inherent loss in sensitivity and potential probe binding biases caused by the competition of two differentially labeled oligonucleotide probes for the same target site. Here we demonstrate that the application of multicolored, double-labeled oligonucleotide probes enables the simultaneous detection of up to six microbial target populations in a straightforward and robust manner with higher sensitivity and less bias. Thus, this newly developed technique should be an attractive option for all researchers interested in applying conventional FISH methods for the study of microbial communities.
