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

During the self-healing process of Bacillus subtilis biofilms on a solid MSgg substrate, large-scale ordered clusters emerge within the biofilm, providing an invasive advantages. To investigate the self-healing mechanism, an agent-based model is employed to simulate the self-healing processes of biofilms at two ages. The study reveals that a uniform cell distribution facilitates the healing of biofilm incisions. The nutrient diffusion rate within the biofilm and the elastic modulus (comprising cell and EPS) play a dominant role in the healing of circumferential incisions, while the diffusion rate outside the biofilm governs the healing of radial and penetrating incisions. These influencing factors can adjust cellular ordering, providing valuable insights for controlling the self-healing of Bacillus subtilis biofilms.
