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

Klebsiella variicola, an emerging pathogen, significantly impacts banana production by causing bacterial sheath rot. Research has shown that phages are effective in treating bacterial infections. In this study, two lytic K. variicola bacteriophages, PZK-KV7 and PZK-KV23, were isolated from a banana plantation area in Guangdong Province, their biological characteristics were examined, and their whole genomes were sequenced. Both phages were found to belong to the genus Sugarlandvirus of the family Demerecviridae. No antibiotic resistance or virulence genes were identified in either of these phages. One-step growth curve analysis revealed that phages PZK-KV7 and PZK-KV23 have a short latency time and a large burst size. pH tolerance tests revealed that both phages remain stable over a broad pH range (pH 4-12). The ability of these phages to inhibit the growth of K. variicola indicates their potential utility for managing K. variicola infections in banana cultivation.
