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

The oral cavity comprises numerous anatomical surfaces that are inhabited by a diverse array of bacteria, collectively forming a bacterial biofilm. Within this complex microbial community, certain bacterial species are etiologically linked to the development of common oral pathologies, such as dental caries and periodontitis, which stand as prominent instances of bacterial infections frequently encountered in clinical settings. Most biofilms are believed to be multispecies consortia. While single-species biofilms have been well-researched, mixed-species biofilms and their interactions amongst themselves have not drawn interest. The aim of the current review was to assess the various interactions of dual-species microorganisms in oral biofilm formation. Farnesol given exogenously for the treatment of biofilm can enhance or inhibit the growth of certain organisms, as seen in
