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

The composition of the intestinal bacterial community is well described, but recent research suggests that the metabolism of these bacteria plays a larger role in health than which species are present. One fundamental aspect of gut bacterial metabolism that remains understudied is bacterial replication. Indeed, there exist few techniques which can identify actively replicating gut bacteria. In this study, we aimed to address this gap by adapting 5-ethynyl-2'-deoxyuridine (EdU) click chemistry (EdU-click), a metabolic labeling method, coupled with fluorescence-activated cell sorting and sequencing (FACS-Seq) to characterize replicating gut bacteria. We first used EdU-click with human gut bacterial isolates and show that many of them are amenable to this technique. We then optimized EdU-click and FACS-Seq for murine fecal bacteria and reveal that
