Cost-Effective and Versatile Analysis of Archaeal Surface Adhesion Under Shaking and Standing Conditions.
Article in Methods in molecular biology (Clifton, N.J.), 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Biofilms are aggregates of cells surrounded by an extracellular matrix providing protection from external stresses. While biofilms are commonly studied in bacteria, archaea also form such cell aggregates both in liquid cultures and on solid surfaces. Biofilm architectures vary when in liquid cultures versus on surfaces as well as when incubated under static conditions versus under shear forces of flowing liquid. Moreover, biofilms develop dynamically over time. Here, we describe surface adhesion assays employing a cost-effective, 3D-printed coverslip holder that can be used under a broad range of standing and shaking culture conditions. This multi-panel adhesion (mPAD) mount further allows the same culture to be sampled at multiple time points, ensuring consistency and comparability between samples and enabling analysis of the dynamics of biofilm formation. Additionally, a traditional surface adhesion assay in a 12-well plate under standing conditions is outlined as well. We anticipate the combination of these protocols to be useful for analyzing a wide array of biofilms and answering a multitude of biological questions.
