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

Photogranulation transforms activated sludge into spatially organized photogranules, yet the role and fate of cyanobacterial strains that trigger this process remain poorly understood. Here, we tested the ability of seven strains of filamentous cyanobacteria to induce photogranule or mat morphotypes in replicated hydrostatic incubations. Despite successful granulation in all replicates when granule-forming strains were added, sequencing revealed that these keystone cyanobacteria responsible for photogranulation were outcompeted during community succession and absent from mature photogranules. A time-series experiment demonstrated that the added granule-forming strain
