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

Strictly hydrogen- and sulfur-oxidizing chemolithoautotrophic bacteria, particularly members of the phyla Campylobacterota and Aquificota, have a cosmopolitan distribution in deep-sea hydrothermal fields. The successful cultivation of these microorganisms in liquid media has provided insights into their physiological, evolutionary, and ecological characteristics. Notably, recent population genetic studies on Sulfurimonas (Campylobacterota) and Persephonella (Aquificota) revealed geographic separation in their populations. Advances in this field of research are largely dependent on the availability of pure cultures, which demand labor-intensive liquid cultivation procedures, such as dilution-to-extinction, given the longstanding assumption that many strictly or facultatively anaerobic chemolithoautotrophs cannot easily form colonies on solid media. We herein describe a simple and cost-effective approach for cultivating these chemolithoautotrophs on solid media. The results obtained suggest that not only the choice of gelling agent, but also the gas phase composition significantly affect the colony-forming ratio of diverse laboratory strains. The use of gellan gum as a gelling agent combined with high concentrations of H
