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
Kars Kashar cheese is an artisanal pasta-filata type cheese and geographically marked in Eastern Anatolia of Turkey. The aims of this research were to determine for the first time thermophilic lactic acid bacteria (LAB) of Kars Kashar cheese and characterize the technological properties of obtained isolates. In our research, a number of 15 samples of whey were collected from the different villages in Kars. These samples were incubated at 45 °C and used as the source material for isolating thermophilic LAB. A total of 250 colonies were isolated from thermophilic whey, and 217 of them were determined to be presumptive LAB based on their Gram staining and catalase test. A total of 170 isolates were characterized by their phenotypic properties and identified using the MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry method. Phenotypic identification of isolates displayed that Enterococcus and Lactobacillus were the predominant microbiota. According to MALDI-TOF MS identification, 89 isolates were identified as Enterococcus (52.35%), 57 isolates as Lactobacillus (33.53%), 23 isolates as Streptococcus (13.53%), and one isolate as Lactococcus (0.59%). All thermophilic LAB isolates were successfully identified to the species level and it has been observed that MALDI-TOF MS can be successfully used for the identification of selected LAB. The acidification and proteolytic activities of the isolated thermophilic LAB were examined, and the isolates designated for use as starter cultures were also genotypically defined.
