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

Dairy production facilities represent a unique ecological niche for bacteriophages of lactic acid bacteria. Throughout evolution, bacteria have developed a wide range of defense mechanisms against viral infections caused by bacteriophages. The CRISPR-Cas system is of particular interest due to its adaptive nature. It allows bacteria to acquire and maintain specific resistance to certain bacteriophages. In this study, we investigated the CRISPR-Cas systems of lactic acid bacteria. Special attention was paid to the specificity of the spacers in CRISPR cassettes. CRISPR-Cas systems were found in the genomes of 43% of the lactic acid bacteria studied. Additionally, only 13.1% of the total number of CRISPR cassette spacers matched bacteriophage genomes, indicating that many predicted spacers either lack known phage targets or are directed against other types of mobile genetic elements, such as plasmids.
