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

A core principle of bacterial pathogenesis is that pathogens preferentially utilize metabolites that commensal bacteria do not in order to sidestep nutritional competition. The metabolite ethanolamine (EA) is well recognized to play a central role in host adaptation for diverse pathogens. EA promotes growth and influences virulence during host infection. Although genes encoding EA utilization have been identified in diverse bacteria (nonpathogenic and pathogenic), a prevailing idea is that commensal bacteria do not utilize EA to enhance growth, and thus, EA is a noncompetitive metabolite for pathogens. Here, we show that EA augments growth of two human commensal strains of
