Anti-quorum sensing activity of some marine bacteria isolated from different marine resources in Egypt.
Article in Biotechnology letters, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
objectivesTo screen for a variety of marine bacteria with anti-quorum sensing and anti-biofilm activities.
resultsAmong 188 bacterial isolates from water, sediment, and corals in the Red Sea region, approximately 35% (65 isolates) of the isolates displayed a significant degradation in the purple pigment of the bioreporter strain without affecting cell growth. The quorum quenching bacteria obtained from coral-associated bacteria were 66.2% out of the total isolates. The PCR amplification results revealed that the recorded Acyl Homoserine lactone (AHL) inhibition by 91% of the anti-QS marine bacteria was not due to lactonase activity. On the other hand, lactonase genes were recorded only in the remaining 9% (6 isolates) and those were belonging to genus Bacillus, Nocardiopsis, and Enterobacter based on 16S rRNA gene sequences. The results also showed that marine bacteria with anti-QS activity inhibited 67% of the biofilm formed by Aeromonas hydrophila, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and Vibrio alginolyticus. The computational profiling analysis confirmed the presence of the functional region in the detected genes.
conclusionCoral microbial communities are rich sources for pharmacologically important natural products with anti-quorum sensing and anti-biofilm activities.
