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

Aeromonas is one of the most serious pathogens in freshwater aquaculture. Overuse of antibiotics for the treatment of fish diseases has led to the frequent occurrence of drug-resistant strains. Phage therapy is an alternative approach to overcoming the multi-drug resistance associated with antibiotics. In this study, a novel phage phiA034 targeting the host A. veronii A034 was isolated. The phage could infect 14 strains of 4 species Aeromonas. The phage phiA034 displayed head-tail structure with an icosahedral head in the TEM image. At the optimal MOI of 1, it had a latent period of nearly 20 minutes and a burst size of 286 PFU/cell. Besides, the phage phiA034 exhibited high tolerance to a wide range of temperature (30-70 °C) and acid-base (pH 6.0-10.0). The whole genome of phage phiA034 was sequenced with a size of 61,443 bp and annotated with 82 ORFs, mainly related to structure, DNA replication, and lysis. Based on the analysis and comparison of the genomes and proteomes, phage phiA034 could be classified as a novel species of an existing genus Duplodnaviria Heunggongvirae, Uroviricota, Caudoviricetes, Casjensviridae, Sharonstreetvirus. These findings have expanded the species bank and genomes library of bacterial virus and will promote the application of phage therapy in Aeromonas disease.
