Utilizing glycoside hydrolases to improve the quantitation and visualization of biofilm bacteria.
Article in Biofilm, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 papers.
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 complexity of microbial biofilms offers several challenges to the use of traditional means of microbial research. In particular, it can be difficult to calculate accurate numbers of biofilm bacteria, because even after thorough homogenization or sonication, small pieces of the biofilm remain, which contain numerous bacterial cells and result in inaccurately low colony forming units (CFU). In addition, imaging of infected tissue
