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

Due to rising antibiotic resistance, there is an urgent need for different treatment options for multidrug-resistant infections. One alternative under investigation is phage therapy, which uses phages to treat bacterial infections. Although phages are highly abundant in the environment, not all phages are suitable for phage therapy, and finding efficient phages that lack undesirable traits such as bacterial virulence factors is challenging. Here, we developed a targeted single-phage isolation method to detect and isolate phages of interest and to characterize their kinetics in a high-throughput manner. This assay has also revealed cell-to-cell variations at a single-cell level among cells infected with the same phage species, as well as among cells infected with different phage species.
