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

Once thought to live independently, bacteria are now known to be highly social organisms. Their behaviors ranges from cooperatively forming complex multispecies communities to fiercely competing for resources. Work over the past fifty years has shown that bacteria communicate through diverse mechanisms, such as exchanging diffusible molecules, exporting molecules in membrane vesicles, and interacting through direct cell-cell contact. These methods allow bacteria to sense and respond to other cells around them and coordinate group behavior. In this review, we share the discoveries and lessons learned in the field of bacterial communication with the aim of providing insights to parasitologists and other researchers working on related questions.
