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

Microbial life cycles are often reconstructed theoretically from fragmentary pieces of evidence. Protocols for the direct and continuous observation of entire microbial life cycles, including sexual reproduction, are scarce, which limits the study of cellular transitions between different life cycle stages and prevents the visualization of cryptic stages. Although sequence-based techniques, such as -omics approaches, can reconstruct cellular transitions at the genetic and biochemical level, these methods are destructive and do not recover information from the same living cell over time. This protocol provides a solution to directly and continuously observe microbial life cycles, including sexual reproduction, by using microfluidics manipulations that expose single cells to nutritional stimuli and selective pressures. As proof of principle, we triggered a life cycle sequence transition in the model yeast
