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

"Geoglobus ahangari" strain 234(T) is an obligate Fe(III)-reducing member of the Archaeoglobales, within the archaeal phylum Euryarchaeota, isolated from the Guaymas Basin hydrothermal system. It grows optimally at 88 °C by coupling the reduction of Fe(III) oxides to the oxidation of a wide range of compounds, including long-chain fatty acids, and also grows autotrophically with hydrogen and Fe(III). It is the first archaeon reported to use a direct contact mechanism for Fe(III) oxide reduction, relying on a single archaellum for locomotion, numerous curled extracellular appendages for attachment, and outer-surface heme-containing proteins for electron transfer to the insoluble Fe(III) oxides. Here we describe the annotation of the genome of "G. ahangari" strain 234(T) and identify components critical to its versatility in electron donor utilization and obligate Fe(III) respiratory metabolism at high temperatures. The genome comprises a single, circular chromosome of 1,770,093 base pairs containing 2034 protein-coding genes and 52 RNA genes. In addition, emended descriptions of the genus "Geoglobus" and species "G. ahangari" are described.
