ColorPhAST: a visual rapid colorimetric assay for detecting phage-susceptibility in
Article in Frontiers in microbiology, 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
The alarming increase in the prevalence of multidrug-resistant microorganisms, which in some cases has left no available treatment options, has led to a renewed interest in previously abandoned therapeutic approaches such as bacteriophage therapy. Therefore, the development of rapid methods for determining phage susceptibility will be essential in the near future because phage-based treatments could provide a viable alternative for patients with infections caused by multidrug-resistant microorganisms. In response to this need, a new test named ColorPhAST (Color Phage Activity Susceptibility Test) based on color change of red phenol has been designed to detect phage-susceptibility in just 2 h.
