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

Adaptive laboratory evolution (ALE) is a valuable complementary tool for modern strain development. Insights from ALE experiments enable the improvement of microbial cell factories regarding the growth rate and substrate utilization, among others. Most ALE experiments are conducted by serial passaging, a method that involves large amounts of repetitive manual labor and comes with inherent experimental design flaws. The acquisition of meaningful and reliable process data is a burdensome task and is often undervalued and neglected, but also unfeasible in shake flask experiments due to technical limitations. Some of these limitations are alleviated by emerging automated ALE methods on the μL and mL scale. A novel approach to conducting ALE experiments is described that is faster and more efficient than previously used methods. The conventional shake flask approach was translated to a parallelized, L scale stirred-tank bioreactor system that runs controlled, automated, repeated batch processes. The method was validated with a growth optimization experiment of
