Cultivating efficiency: High-throughput growth analysis of anaerobic bacteria in compact microplate readers.
Article in bioRxiv : the preprint server for biology, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Anaerobic microbes play crucial roles in environmental processes, industry, and human health. Traditional methods for monitoring the growth of anaerobes, including plate counts or subsampling broth cultures for optical density measurements, are time and resource intensive. The advent of microplate readers revolutionized bacterial growth studies by enabling high-throughput and real-time monitoring of microbial growth kinetics but their use in anaerobic microbiology has remained limited. Here, we present a workflow for using small-footprint microplate readers and the Growthcurver R package to analyze the kinetic growth metrics of anaerobic bacteria. We benchmarked the small-footprint Cerillo Stratus microplate reader against a BioTek Synergy HTX microplate reader in aerobic conditions using
