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

In natural or man-made environments, microorganisms exist predominantly as biofilms forming surface-associated bacterial communities embedded in extracellular polymeric substances (EPSs). Often, biofilm reactors used for endpoint and disruptive analyses of biofilm are not suitable for periodic observation of biofilm formation and development. In this study, a microfluidic device designed with multiple channels and a gradient generator was used for high-throughput analysis and real-time monitoring of dual-species biofilm formation and development. We compared the structural parameters of monospecies and dual-species biofilms containing Pseudomonas aeruginosa (expressing mCherry) and Escherichia coli (expressing green fluorescent protein [GFP]) to understand the interactions in the biofilm. The rate of biovolume increase of each species in monospecies biofilm (2.7 × 10
