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

backgroundFresh produce such as leafy green salads have recently become recognized as a potential source of food-borne infection by enteric pathogens This study investigated whether compounds released from damaged salad leaves were recognized by

methodsThe effects of extracts of salad leaves or salad bag fluids were tested on the growth, biofilm formation, and colonization of salad leaves and host cell virulence.

resultsThe presence of salad extract at a concentration of less than 0.5%

conclusionsThis investigation showed that salad leaf extracts can markedly enhance bacterial virulence, which has implications for bagged salad leaf consumer safety if the leaves become contaminated with pathogenic bacteria such as
