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

Simple and convenient innovative assays in vitro demonstrating Metschnikowia spp. competition with Saccharomyces cerevisiae for an essential nutrient iron are presented. The tested Metschnikowia strains possess a common genetically determined property of secreting a pulcherriminic acid which in the presence of iron (III) ions forms an insoluble red pigment pulcherrimin. Both initial accumulation in growing Metschnikowia cells and subsequent precipitation in the form of pulcherrimin in the media contribute to iron removal by functioning cells. The predominant way depends on the strain. Due to fast elimination of iron, the growth of S. cerevisiae can be inhibited by tested Metschnikowia strains at concentrations of elemental iron in the media not exceeding 12 mg kg
