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

Halomonas elongata strain ml10562, was isolated from hypersaline that was collected from Acos Peru. Average Nucleotide Identity (ANI) and dDDH (digital DNA-DNA Hybridization) values between strain ml10562 and type strains of Halomonas elongata species were 71.0-78.4% and 18.8-21.5%, respectively. The draft genome, spanning 4,075,440 base pairs, has a GC content of 64.2% and contains 3,912 genes. Functional characterization revealed the strain's ability to tolerate and resist increasing concentrations of sodium arsenate, with a minimum inhibitory concentration of 25 mM. Bioinformatic analysis revealed the presence of two operons, arsR-arsH-arsB and arsJ-gapdh-arsC, in the genome of strain ml10562, which could play a crucial role in arsenic resistance through transporter-mediated mechanisms. Overall, these results emphasize the potential adaptability of H. elongata ml10562 to arsenic-containing environments and extend our understanding of bacterial arsenic resistance mechanisms, allowing promising applications in bioremediation.
