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

An isolation strategy, exploring novel microorganisms in frozen enrichment cultures (ENFE), which uses a combination of enrichment culture and 16S rRNA gene clone analysis, was evaluated for isolating uncultured thermophiles from a terrestrial acidic hot spring. The procedure comprised (a) multiple enrichment cultures under various conditions, (b) cryostorage of all enrichments, (c) microbial community analyses of the enrichments using 16S rRNA gene sequences, and (d) purification of microorganisms from enrichments containing previously uncultured microorganisms. The enrichments were performed under a total of 36 conditions, and 16 of these enrichments yielded positive microbial growth with the detection of three previously uncultured archaea. Two of the three previously uncultured archaea, strains HS-1 and HS-3, were successfully isolated. Strain HS-1 and HS-3 represented a novel lineage of the order Sulfolobales and novel species of the genus Sulfolobus, respectively. Although innovative isolation methods play strategic roles in isolating previously uncultured microorganisms, the ENFE strategy showed potential for characterizing and isolating such microorganisms using conventional media and techniques.
