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

Engineered probiotic bacteria represent an innovative approach for treating and detecting a wide range of diseases including those caused by infectious agents. Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) are promising alternatives to conventional antibiotics for combating antibiotic-resistant infections. These molecules can be delivered orally to the gut by using engineered probiotics, which confer protection against AMP degradation, thus enabling numerous applications including treating drug-resistant enteric pathogens and remodeling the microbiota in real time. Here, we provide an update on the current state of the art on AMP-producing probiotics, discuss methods to enhance gut colonization, and end by outlining future perspectives.
