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

High-content imaging (HCI) is a technique for screening multiple cells in high resolution to detect subtle morphological and phenotypic variation. The method has been commonly deployed on model eukaryotic cellular systems, often for screening new drugs and targets. HCI is not commonly utilized for studying bacterial populations but may be a powerful tool in understanding and combatting antimicrobial resistance. Consequently, we developed a high-throughput method for phenotyping bacteria under antimicrobial exposure at the scale of individual bacterial cells. Imaging conditions were optimized on an Opera Phenix confocal microscope (Perkin Elmer), and novel analysis pipelines were established for both Gram-negative bacilli and Gram-positive cocci. The potential of this approach was illustrated using isolates of
