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 N-acyl-homoserine lactones (AHLs)-mediated quorum-sensing (QS) system played a crucial role in regulating biological nitrogen removal and biofilm formation. However, the regulatory role of AHLs on nitrogen removal bacteria in high salinity environment has remained unclear. This study evaluated the roles and release patterns of AHLs in Vibrio sp. LV-Q1 under high salinity condition. Results showed that Vibrio sp. primarily secretes five AHLs, and the AHLs activity is strongly correlated with the bacterial density. Exogenous C10-HSL and 3OC10-HSL were found to significantly enhance ammonium removal, while making a minor contribution to the growth rate. Both the C10-HSL and 3OC10-HSL promoted the biofilm formation of Vibrio sp. with an enhancement of 1.64 and 1.78 times, respectively. The scanning electron microscope (SEM) and confocal laser scanning microscope (CLSM) observations confirmed the biofilm-enhancing effect of AHLs. Further analysis revealed that AHLs significantly improved bacterial self-aggregation and motility, as well as the level of extracellular polymeric substances (EPS). These findings provide significant guidance on construction of nitrification system at high salinity.
