Unlocking Probiotic Potential: Genomic Insights into Weissella paramesenteroides UFTM 2.6.1.
Article in Probiotics and antimicrobial proteins, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 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
Weissella, a genus of lactic acid bacteria, has diverse beneficial attributes including probiotic activity and biotechnological applications. Therefore, the investigation of the Weissella genus has garnered growing interest. In this study, we sequenced the complete genome of Weissella paramesenteroides UFTM 2.6.1 isolated from unpasteurized cow's milk from the Triângulo Mineiro region and performed probiogenomic analyses. Taxonomic characterization confirmed the identity of W. paramesenteroides. The genome comprises 1926 protein-coding genes, mainly related to cell metabolism, information storage and processing, and cellular processes and signaling. Ninety-nine unique genes associated with probiotic functions were identified in the genome of W. paramesenteroides UFTM 2.6.1, including genes involved in stress response, bacterial persistence in the gastrointestinal tract, and biosynthesis of vitamins. In silico analysis of bacteriocin-related genes identified Pediocin, and subsequent in vitro testing confirmed that W. paramesenteroides UFTM 2.6.1 exhibits antimicrobial activity against Listeria spp. Genomic characterization revealed the presence of the replicon pLCK4 and four prophage regions, one of which was intact. Moreover, no CRISPR-Cas array or associated Cas proteins were found, along with an absence of resistance and virulence genes, suggesting a safety aspect of the evaluated strain. Pan-genome analysis unveiled 204 exclusive genes in the genome of W. paramesenteroides UFTM 2.6.1, which includes metabolism and stress-associated genes. In general, the results indicate probiotic potential of W. paramesenteroides UFTM 2.6.1. Further studies are required to ensure the safety and beneficial effects of this bacterium in vivo, aiming for future applications in the food industry and animal and human medicine.
