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

Biofilm-forming bacteria, such as Bacillus cereus and Vibrio harveyi are major contributors to food contamination and problems in aquaculture. This study aimed to evaluate the antibiofilm compounds of the phyllosphere bacterial supernatants (Pseudomonas fluorescens JB 3B and Proteus myxofaciens JB 20B), bacteriophages (BC-VP and Vh-S4-phage), and their combinations against these pathogens. Antibacterial and quorum sensing assays showed no activities. The combination of antibiofilm compounds and bacteriophages revealed measurable but species-dependent effects. For B. cereus, the JB 3B-phage and JB 20B-phage combinations revealed inhibition results of 39.21% and 39.62%, and destruction results of 50.60% and 43.12%, respectively. In contrast, V. harveyi showed much lower responses, with inhibition results at 3.49% and 4.80%, and destruction at 9.28% and 6.39%, respectively. SEM analysis supported the microscopic observations, showing reduced biofilm layers and disrupted biofilm matrix structures in treated groups. Gas chromatography - mass spectrometry (GC-MS) analysis showed potential antibiofilm compounds, including acetic acid, sarcosine, 4-octadecenal, and erythritol. Statistical analysis confirmed significant effects of bacterial species, treatment, and the interaction on both biofilm inhibition and destruction (p < .05). Overall, the study highlights specific phyllosphere-derived compounds and bacteriophages with promising antibiofilm activity, while emphasizing that their combined use may not always enhance efficacy in controlling biofilm-related contamination in aquaculture and food industry.
