Anti-Pseudomonas aeruginosa biofilm activity of tellurium nanorods biosynthesized by cell lysate of Haloferax alexandrinus GUSF-1(KF796625).
Article in Biometals : an international journal on the role of metal ions in biology, biochemistry, and medicine, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Pseudomonas aeruginosa, an opportunistic human pathogen, is a major health concern as it grows as a biofilm and evades the host's immune defenses. Formation of biofilms on catheter and endotracheal tubes demands the development of biofilm-preventive (anti-biofilm) approaches and evaluation of nanomaterials as alternatives to antibiotics. The present study reports the successful biosynthesis of tellurium nanorods using cell lysate of Haloferax alexandrinus GUSF-1 (KF796625). The black particulate matter had absorption bands at 0.5 and 3.6 keV suggestive of elemental tellurium; showed x-ray diffraction peaks at 2θ values 24.50°, 28.74°, 38.99°, 43.13°, 50.23° and displayed a crystallite size of 36.99 nm. The black nanorods of tellurium were an average size of 40 nm × 7 nm, as observed in transmission electron microscopy. To our knowledge, the use of cell lysate of Haloferax alexandrinus GUSF-1 (KF796625) as a green route for the biosynthesis of tellurium nanorods with a Pseudomonas aeruginosa biofilm inhibiting capacity is novel to haloarchaea.
