Article in Microbiology spectrum, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 papers.
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
Lactic acid bacteria such as Streptococcus thermophilus are known to produce extracellular polysaccharide (EPS) in fermented foods that enhance the creaminess and mouthfeel of the product, such as yogurt. Strains producing larger amounts of EPS are highly sought-after, and therefore, robust and accurate quantification methodologies are important. This study found that two commonly used methodologies significantly underestimated the amount of EPS produced as measured using a milk matrix. To this end, a proteolytic step was implemented prior to EPS extraction (Method C). An initial proteolytic step using xanthan gum-spiked milk significantly increased recovery yield to 64%, compared to 27.8% for Method A and 34.3% for Method B. Method C showed no improvement when assessed using a chemically defined medium. Method C was further validated using three strains of S. thermophilus with varying EPS-production capabilities (ST
