Genome Characterization of the Novel Lytic Enterobacter cloacae Phage vB_EclM_Q7622.

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
Enterobacter cloacae is a widespread opportunistic pathogen that causes urinary tract infection. The abuse of antibiotics enabled multidrug-resistant strains to spread. Bacteriophage therapy is a naturally, safe, and efficient alternative treatment technology against multi-resistant bacteria. In this study, a virulent phage vB_EclM_Q7622 (Q7622) was isolated from the sewage of Jiangcun poultry market in Guangzhou city. Transmission electron microscopy indicated that Q7622 had an icosahedral head (97.8 ± 5.6 nm in diameter) and a short, contractile tail (113.7 ± 4.5 nm). Its double-stranded DNA genome is composed of 173,871 bp with a GC content of 40.02%. It possesses 297 open reading frames and 9 tRNAs. No known virulence and resistance genes were detected, indicated that phage Q7622 could be used for pathogens prevention and control safely. Comparative genomic and phylogenetic analysis showed that Q7622 was highly similar to the phages vB_EclM_CIP9 and vB_EhoM-IME523. The highest nucleotide similarity between Q7622 and the similar phages in NCBI calculated by pyANI and VIRIDIC were 94.9% and 89.1% with vB_EhoM-IME523 respectively, below 95%. Thus, according to the result of nucleotide similarity calculation results, Q7622 was a novel virulent Enterobacter cloacae phage strain of the genus Kanagawavirus.
