Assessing Biodegradability of Chemical Compounds from Microbial Community Growth Using Flow Cytometry.
Article in mSystems, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Compound biodegradability tests with natural microbial communities form an important keystone in the ecological assessment of chemicals. However, biodegradability tests are frequently limited by a singular focus either on the chemical and potential transformation products or on the individual microbial species degrading the compound. Here, we investigated a methodology to simultaneously analyze community compositional changes and biomass growth on dosed test compound from flow cytometry (FCM) data coupled to machine-learned cell type recognition. We quantified the growth of freshwater microbial communities on a range of carbon dosages of three readily biodegradable reference compounds, phenol, 1-octanol, and benzoate, in comparison to three fragrances, methyl jasmonate, myrcene, and musk xylene (as a nonbiodegradable control). Compound mass balances with between 0.1 to 10 mg C · liter
