Probiotics prevent mortality of thermal-sensitive corals exposed to short-term heat stress.
Article in ISME communications, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 papers.
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.
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
The use of coral probiotics, i.e. beneficial microorganisms for corals (BMCs), is a novel approach to enhancing coral health under heat stress. While BMCs mitigate coral bleaching and mortality during prolonged heat stress conditions, their effectiveness in mitigating short-term acute heat stress remains understudied. This study investigates the effects of BMCs on two Red Sea hard coral species,
