Water-in-oil droplet-mediated method for detecting and isolating infectious bacteriophage particles via fluorescent staining.
Article in Frontiers in microbiology, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers.
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
Bacteriophages are the most abundant entities on Earth. In contrast with the number of phages considered to be in existence, current phage isolation and screening methods lack throughput. Droplet microfluidic technology has been established as a platform for high-throughput screening of biological and biochemical components. In this study, we developed a proof-of-concept method for isolating phages using water-in-oil droplets (droplets) as individual chambers for phage propagation and co-cultivating T2 phage and their host cell
