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

Although bacteriophages are more numerous and have smaller genomes than their bacterial hosts, relatively few have their genomes sequenced. Here, we isolated the Pseudomonas fluorescens bacteriophage from Napahai plateau wetland and performed de novo genome sequencing. Based on the previous biological characteristics and bioinformatics analysis, it was determined that VW-6B was a linear double-stranded DNA (dsDNA) phage with 35,306 bp, with 56.76% G+C content and 197 bp tandem repeats. The VW-6B genome contained 46 open-reading frames (ORFs), and no tRNA genes were found. Based on phage genome structure, sequence comparison, and collinear analysis, VW-6B should be classified into the family Siphoviridae and be considered as a member of a new species in the Mu-like phage. The newly isolated bacteriophage can specifically infect P. fluorescens, which further enriches the diversity of known bacteriophages and provides a basis for the subsequent research and application of bacteriophages.
