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 aim of this study was to evaluate the probiotic characteristics and safety of seven Enterococcus faecalis isolates from fecal samples of healthy Chinese infants. We evaluated the isolates' tolerance to low pH, survival in bile salts and NaCl, adhesion ability, biofilm formation, antimicrobial activity, toxin gene distribution, hemolysis, gelatinase activity, antibiotic resistance, and virulence to Galleria mellonella. All strains survived at pH 5.0, in 7.0% NaCl, and in 3% bile salt. Adhesion to Caco-2 cells was above 10%. Strain A3-1 had higher adhesion ability toward mucin, collagen, and BSA in vitro, better antibacterial activity, and the strongest biofilm production. We detected seven virulence genes with a distribution of asa1 (100%), cylA (71.4%), esp (85.7%), hyl (14.3%), gelE (85.7%), ace (42.9%), and agg (71.4%). Although all strains were γ-hemolytic, none showed gelatinase activity based on physiological activity detection. All isolates were susceptible to benzylpenicillin, ampicillin, ciprofloxacin, levofloxacin, moxifloxacin, tigecycline, nitrofurantoin, linezolid, and vancomycin; they were not susceptible to erythromycin, quinupristin/dalofopine, and clindamycin. The virulence test of G. mellonella showed that, except for strains 106-1 and 113-1, the other strains had toxicity lower than 10%. Strain A3-1 may have the greatest potential to be developed as a probiotic.
