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

The ability of a bacterial strain to form a biofilm is strictly related to its pathogenicity. Bacterial adherence and early biofilm formation are influenced by chemical, physical and biological factors that determine their pathogenic properties. We recently presented in literature the ability of pyro-electrified polymer sheets to promote rapid biofilm formation, based on what we called biofilm electrostatic test (BET) carriers. Here we performed a step forward by presenting a comprehensive characterization of the BET methodology through a quantitative evaluation of the biomass on the BET-carrier in the very early stages of incubation. Two bacterial suspensions of
