A comparison of phage susceptibility testing with two liquid high-throughput methods.
Article in Frontiers in microbiology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Phage therapy is a promising antibacterial strategy, especially given that drug-resistant bacterial infections are escalating worldwide. Because phages are not active against all strains of a given species, phages being considered for therapeutic use would ideally be tested against bacterial isolates from individual patients prior to administration. Standardized, clinically validated phage susceptibility testing (PST) methods are needed for assessing
