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

Soil is a common source for identifying antibiotic-producing bacteria; however, other ecosystems in nature may contain novel bacteria capable of producing antibiotics. Bark from seven tree species was collected as a new source to culture bacterial isolates that were screened against nine tester bacteria related to antibiotic resistant pathogens. Five of the seven tree species contained isolates that showed antibiotic production against at least one of the tester bacteria. Bark should be further explored as a possible source for bacteria that produce unknown antibiotics.
