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

In this study, we isolated a total of 238 culturable putative bacterial endophytes from four Pinus species (Pinus densiflora, P. koraiensis, P. rigida, and P. thunbergii) across 18 sampling sites in Korea. The samples were cultured in de Man Rogosa Sharpe and humic acid-vitamin agar media. These selective media were used to isolate lactic acid bacteria and Actinobacteria, respectively. Analysis using 16S ribosomal DNA sequencing grouped the isolated putative bacterial endophytes into 107 operational taxonomic units (OTUs) belonging to 48 genera. Gamma-proteobacteria were the most abundant bacteria in each sampling site and three tissues (needle, stem and root). The highest OTU richness and diversity indices were observed in the roots, followed by stem and needle tissues. Total metabolites extracted from three isolates (two isolates of Escherichia coli and Serratia marcescens) showed significant nematicidal activity against the pine wood nematode (Bursaphelenchus xylophilus). Our findings demonstrated the potential use of bacterial endophytes from pine trees as alternative biocontrol agents against pine wood nematodes.
