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

This work investigates the origin and range of fluorescent organic matter (FOM) produced in-situ by environmentally sourced freshwater bacteria. Aquatic FOM is an essential component in global carbon cycling and is generally classified as either autochthonous, produced in-situ via microbial processes, or allochthonous, transported into aquatic systems from external sources. We have demonstrated that, within laboratory model systems, environmentally sourced mixed microbial communities and bacterial isolates can produce and/or export FOM associated with both autochthonous and allochthonous material. This study focuses on fluorescence peak B, T, M, C and C+, exploring (1) the cellular nature of FOM produced, (2) FOM exported as extracellular material into the water column and (3) the impact of physical cell lysis on FOM signature. For the laboratory model systems studied, Peak T fluorescence is retained within bacterial cells (>68%), while Peak C fluorescence is mainly observed as extracellular material (>80%). Peak M is identified as both cellular and extracellular FOM, produced by all isolated freshwater microorganisms investigated. The origin of Peak C+ is postulated to originate from functional metabolites associated with specific microorganisms, seen specifically within the
