Isolation, characterization, and antibacterial activity of lytic bacteriophage against methicillin-resistant
Article in Iranian journal of microbiology, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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
Background and Objectives: Phage therapy has gained interest as an alternative treatment for methicillin-resistant Materials and Methods: Bacteriophage was isolated from hospital sewage. Lytic activity and the titers of phage lysates were measured using spot test and double-layer plaque assay. The phage characterization was determined through transmission electron microscopy. Adsorption rate, host range and stability tests were investigated. The latent period and burst size were estimated from a one-step growth curve. The effect of bacteriophage against MRSA biofilms was determined and Real-time PCR was used to assess the effects of the bacteriophage on the expression of the biofilm-associated genes. Results: TEM results showed that the phage resembled the Conclusion: The isolated phage was effective against MRSA strains and it can be an optional strategy of controlling biofilm development.
