Ranked placement of phage predation as a determinant of dehydration severity among cholera patients in Bangladesh.
Article in medRxiv : the preprint server for health sciences, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Phage predation is inversely associated with severe cholera yet its importance as a determinant of dehydration severity is unknown relative to other factors. Here we used machine learning to assess and rank potential host, microbial, and environmental factors as determinants of severe dehydration among a cohort of cholera patients enrolled at hospital admission across Bangladesh. We found the phage to pathogen ratio ranked among the top classifying features, placing just behind patient age and admission location. We advocate that phage predation is a key factor to include in the characterization of cholera for scientific, clinical and epidemiological applications.
