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

Background and Aim: Industrial-scale probiotic production requires economically viable media formulations that do not compromise strain functionality. This study aimed to develop a cost-effective medium for cultivating Materials and Methods: Carbon (glucose, sucrose, and dextrose) and nitrogen (yeast extract, soy protein isolate, and whey protein concentrate) sources were screened using one-variable-at-a-time and Plackett-Burman design, followed by Response Surface Methodology for optimization. Fermentation was scaled from a flask to 50 L fermenters at 37 °C and pH 6.50 ± 0.05. Cell viability, pH, and residual sugar were monitored. Functional assessments included stress tolerance assays (heat, acid, bile, and oxidative stress) and untargeted metabolomic profiling using ultra-high performance liquid chromatography-quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry. Results: The optimal medium comprised 9 g/L glucose, 14.1 g/L soy protein isolate, and 14.1 g/L yeast extract, supplemented with minerals. In 50 L fermentation, L22F achieved 9.20 log colony-forming units/mL at 12 h, with residual sugar at 1.50 g/L and pH 3.99. Compared to de Man, Rogosa, and Sharpe, the modified medium reduced production cost by 70%-88%, improved fermentation efficiency, and supported enhanced stress resilience. Metabolomic analysis revealed an elevated production of bioactive metabolites, particularly 1,4-dihydroxy-2-naphthoic acid and indolelactic acid, which are known to support gut homeostasis, anti-inflammatory responses, and probiotic efficacy. Conclusion: This study presents a cost-effective and scalable fermentation medium specifically designed for high-density L22F production. Beyond economic advantages, the medium enhanced the functional properties of L22F, supporting its application as a sustainable probiotic feed additive for swine. These findings establish a foundation for further industrial application and
