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

Fermentation and dissimilatory manganese (Mn) reduction are inter-related metabolic processes that microbes can perform in anoxic environments. Fermentation is less energetically favorable and is often not considered to compete for organic carbon with dissimilatory metal reduction. Therefore, the aim of our study was to investigate the outcome of the competition for lactate between fermentation and Mn oxide (birnessite) reduction in a mixed microbial community. A birnessite reducing enrichment culture was obtained from activated sludge with lactate and birnessite as the substrates. This enrichment was further used to test how various birnessite activities (0, 10, 20, and 40 mM) affected the rates of fermentation and metal reduction, as well as community composition. Increased birnessite activity led to a decrease of lactate consumption rate. Acetate and propionate were the main products. With increasing birnessite activity, the propionate/acetate ratio decreased from 1.4 to 0.47. Significant CO
