The relationship between microbial population ATP and quantitative PCR bioburdens in diesel fuel microcosms.
Article in Access microbiology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Historically, fuel microbiology studies have relied on culture data. Potentially relevant but unculturable bacteria were not detected. Although ATP can quantify total microbial bioburdens in fuels, it cannot differentiate among the taxa present. Quantitative PCR (qPCR) testing promises to fill this gap by quantifying targeted amplicon sequences thereby detecting both culturable and non-culturable taxa and quantifying specifically targeted taxa. In this study, fluid samples drawn from the fuel, interface and water phases of fuel over water microcosms were tested for cellular ATP concentration ([cATP]) and qPCR bioburdens. Additionally, surface swab samples from steel corrosion coupon surfaces exposed to each of these three phases were collected and tested for total ATP concentration ([tATP]) and qPCR bioburdens. Statistical relationships between ATP and qPCR bioburdens were examined. Correlation coefficients between the two variables were matrix dependent and ranged from negligible (|
