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

Predicting the contribution of media components to bacterial growth was first initiated by introducing machine learning to high-throughput growth assays. A total of 1336 temporal growth records corresponding to 225 different media, which were composed of 13 chemical components, were generated. The growth rate and saturated density of each growth curve were automatically calculated with the newly developed data processing program. To identify the decision making factors related to growth among the 13 chemicals, big datasets linking the growth parameters to the chemical combinations were subjected to decision tree learning. The results showed that the only carbon source, glucose, determined bacterial growth, but it was not the first priority. Instead, the top decision making chemicals in relation to the growth rate and saturated density were ammonium and ferric ions, respectively. Three chemical components (NH
