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

The comprehensive analysis of microbial communities reveals the unique microbial identity of different olive varieties, paving the way for new strategies in their development and commercial exploitation. In this context, the present study aimed to explore the microbial diversity and functional characteristics of Tsounati variety olives from the Monemvasia region of Peloponnese, Greece, that were naturally fermented for three months. The bacterial and fungal microbiota of both olives and brines were fingerprinted throughout the fermentation through classical microbiological analysis combined with molecular techniques. Among the 148 isolated bacteria, 85 were lactic acid bacteria (LAB), and 63 belonged to the
