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

Introduction: The fundamental step in microbiological detection is the preparation of culture medium. The reliability and accuracy of microbiological assay heavily relies on this step. Currently in China, the most recognized standard method for such medium evaluation is ISO 11133-2014. However, this method requires highly complicated biosafety management, detailed standard strains record-keeping and substantial working time. Methods and results: Bacterial tablet is considered to be a novel strategy for bacteria culture medium evaluation. The filter membrane as a carrier ensures uniform cell dispersion, forming a singular colony that can facilitate counting. We examined the viability and storage durability of vacuum freeze-dried bacterial tablets using a filter membrane as a carrier and utilized the results to evaluate culture medium. We found that the recipe GBSS (Glycerinum, Brain Heart Infusion, Sucrose, Sodium Glutamate) showed the highest survival rate for Discussion: Hence, vacuum freeze-drying method is an integral part of preservation of bacterial strains and the preparation of related biological products. In conclusion, we have developed a novel and effective disposable product for estimating efficiency of the culture medium.
