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

Microcystins (MCs) are the most toxic and abundant cyanotoxins found in natural waters during harmful cyanobacterial blooms. These toxins pose a significant threat to plant, animal, and human health due to their toxicity. Degradation of MCs by MC-degrading bacteria is a promising method for controlling these toxins, demonstrating safety, high efficiency, and cost-effectiveness. In this study, we isolated potential MC-degrading bacteria (strains TA13, TA14, and TA19) from Lake Kasumigaura in Japan and found that they possess a high capacity for MC degradation. Based on 16S rRNA gene sequencing, all three isolated strains were identified as belonging to the
