Strategies for recovering of planktonic and sessile cells of Escherichia coli O157:H7 from freshwater environment.
Article in Environmental monitoring and assessment, 2016. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
The experiments were performed with Escherichia coli O157:H7 EDL 933 in freshwater microcosms at 12 °C. At 35, 45, and 70 days, samples were taken and filtered through 0.45 μm membrane filters. The following alternatives were tested to evaluate the recovery percentage of injured cells: (1) selective media CHROMagar(™)O157 and chromID(™)O157:H7 agar, at 37 °C for 24 h; (2) tryptic soy agar supplemented with yeast extract (TSAE), incubated at 25 °C for 2 or 4 h, then transferred to CHROMagar(™)O157 or chromID(™)O157:H7 agar at 37 °C (TSAE2h-CHROM, TSAE4h-CHROM and TSAE2h-ID, TSAE4h-ID); (3) thin agar layer (TAL) method, TSAE was overlaid on CHROMagar(™)O157 or chromID(™)O157:H7 agar (TALCHROM and TALID, respectively) and incubated at 37 °C for 24 h; and (4) TALCHROM at 25 °C for 4 h, then continued up to complete 24 h at 37 °C (TALCHROM4h). Furthermore, the recovery of E. coli O157:H7 cells adhering to glass coverslips were evaluated to mimic biofilm conditions. The recovery percentages obtained from each alternative were calculated relative to TSAE counts. After 70 days, TSAE4h-CHROM and TALCHROM4h showed the highest recovery percentage (>90 %) from water microcosms. Despite the improved recovery of cell adhering to glass surfaces, the percentages obtained with TSAE4h-CHROM were low. Further studies for the recovery of biofilm-forming E. coli O157:H7 are required. Pre-incubation on TSAE at 25 °C for 4 h, combined with CHROMagar(™)O157, or by thin agar layer method (TALCHROM) enhanced significantly the recovery of viable cells of E. coli O157:H7 after prolonged stay in water microcosms.
