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

A novel bacterial strain, designated MBLB4367T, was isolated from the seacoast soil of Seo-do, Dokdo, Republic of Korea. The strain is Gram-stain-positive, sporulating, and rod-shaped. It grows within a temperature range of 10–45 °C, with an optimum at 30 °C, and thrives at pH 6.0–8.0 (optimum pH 7.0) and NaCl concentrations of 0–2% (w/v), with optimal growth at 0%. Phylogenetic analysis based on the 16 S rRNA gene sequence revealed that strain MBLB4367T was most closely related to Paenibacillus contaminans CKOBP-6T, sharing 98.7% sequence similarity. The predominant fatty acids identified in this strain were anteiso-C15:0 and iso-C15:0, while menaquinone-7 serves as the major respiratory quinone. The polar lipid profile included diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine, and phosphatidyl-N-methylethanolamine as the major lipids. The genome of strain MBLB4367T has a size of 8.7 Mb and a G + C content of 52.8%. Comparative genomic analyses, including average nucleotide identity (67.1–81.2%), average amino acid identity (64.1–83.6%), and DNA-DNA hybridization values (21.9–30.0%), confirm that this strain represented a novel species distinct from previously described closely related species of the genus Paenibacillus. Based on polyphasic taxonomic data, strain MBLB4367T is proposed as a novel species within the genus Paenibacillus, for which the name Paenibacillus litoralis sp. nov. The type strain is MBLB4367T (= KCTC 43804T = JCM 37834T).
