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

Application of bacterial consortium of hydrocarbon degraders to crude oil-contaminated site can enhance bioremediation. This study evaluated the population dynamics and crude oil degradation abilities of various consortia developed from bacterial strains isolated from crude oil-contaminated sites using crude oil-supplemented Bushnell Haas media. Each consortium consisted of three bacterial strains and was designated as Consortium A (Serratia marcescens strain N4, Pseudomonas aeruginosa strain N3R, Pseudomonas aeruginosa strain W11), B (Pseudomonas aeruginosa strain N3R, Pseudomonas aeruginosa strain W11, Pseudomonas protegens strain P7), C (Serratia marcescens strain N4, Pseudomonas aeruginosa strain W11, Pseudomonas protegens strain P7), and D (Pseudomonas aeruginosa strain W15, Providencia vermicola strain W8, Serratia marcescens strain W13). There was progressive decline in the populations of Serratia marcescens strains in the consortia as the incubation period progressed. This may have led to reduction in their synergistic contribution and, subsequently, total degradation ability of crude oil by the consortia. The gravimetric analyses showed that Consortium D produced the highest % crude oil degradation of 29.66% compared to Consortia A, B, and C with 23.73%, 11.86%, and 19.49% respectively. Based on gas chromatography-mass spectrometry analyses, Consortium D produced the highest percentage total petroleum hydrocarbon degradation of 73.65% compared to 68.24%, 68.94%, and 69.19% produced by Consortia A, B, and C respectively. The biodegradation potential of Consortium D also demonstrates the significance of using isolates from the same isolation site in development of consortium for bioremediation.
