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

Assessing the spatial distribution of microorganisms' metabolites in growth medium remains a challenge. Here, we present the first use of the newly developed LARAPPI/CI-MSI 3D (laser ablation remote atmospheric pressure photoionization/chemical ionization mass spectrometry imaging) method for direct three-dimensional (3D) mass spectrometry imaging of bacterial and fungal metabolites in solid culture media. Two-dimensional (2D) MSI was also performed, and it indicated the presence of metabolites belonging to, and including, amino acids and their derivatives, dipeptides, organic acids, fatty acids, sugars and sugar derivatives, benzene derivatives, and indoles. Distribution at a selected depth within the culture medium with the estimation of concentration across all dimensions of 16 metabolites was visualized using LARAPPI/CI-MSI 3D. The imaging results were correlated with the results of ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography-ultra-high-resolution mass spectrometry (UHPLC-UHRMS). A total of 351-393 chemical compounds, depending on the tested microorganism, were identified, while 242-262 were recognized in the HMDB database in MetaboAnalyst (v 6.0). The LARAPPI/CI-MSI 3D method enables the rapid screening of the biotechnological potential of environmental strains, facilitating the discovery of industrially valuable biomolecules.
