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

Halomonas species have recently emerged as attractive candidates for next-generation industrial biotechnology, due to their ability to thrive under high-salt conditions, which allows for fermentation under open, unsterile conditions. However, their genetic manipulation has long been hindered by difficulties in genetic transformation. In this study, we report the development of a highly efficient electroporation protocol for Halomonas elongata DSM 2581. By optimising competent cell preparation and electroporation parameters, and using plasmid DNA purified from dam/dcm methylation-deficient Escherichia coli, we achieved a maximum transformation efficiency of 2.8 × 10
