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

Metschnikowia, the single-cell yeast form, is a genus of 85 species in the Saccharomycetales order that developed in both aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems after being found in 1899. This yeast is commonly used to control microbial populations in many biological and artificial conditions, such as fermentation. However, current study of Metschnikowia is limited to biological control features rather than researching on lucrative sectors such as beverage production, bioconversion manufacturing, cosmetics, and the pharmaceutical industry. This review summarizes numerous possible applications of Metschnikowia in human life, including potential secondary metabolites in industrial fields such as cosmetics and pharmaceuticals. Furthermore, Metschnikowia-yeast interaction is mentioned as a potential area for further exploration in terms of co-cultured microbes as biocontrol. Since Metschnikowia yeast arose in a variety of ecosystems, more discussion will be held regarding the interactions between Metschnikowia and their surroundings, particularly in fruits. Finally, the current regulatory challenges of Metschnikowia-based products are examined, and future research opportunities on Metschnikowia utilization are presented. KEY POINTS: • Utilization of Metschnikowia genus in various human aspects. • Promising secondary metabolites produced by Metschnikowia. • Challenge and opportunity on developing Metschnikowia-based products.
