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 Gram-stain negative, facultative aerobic, rod-shaped and non-flagellated bacterium, designated strain OM2101T, was isolated from sargasso samples of Rongcheng Kelp Breeding Base in the Yellow Sea, PR China. Strain OM2101T grew at 10–30℃ (optimum at 25℃), pH 6.0-8.5 (optimum 6.5-7.0) with 0.5%-7% (w/v) NaCl (optimum with 0.5%). It hydrolyzed alginate and casein, but could not reduce nitrate to nitrite and hydrolyze gelatin and starch. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16 S rRNA gene sequence revealed that strain OM2101T was affiliated with the genus Bernardetia, sharing the highest 16 S rRNA gene sequence similarity (97.83%) with the type strain of Bernardetia litoralis and forming a distinct clade together with this Bernardetia species. The main cellular fatty acids of strain OM2101T were iso-C15:0, summed feature 9 (10-methy1-C16:0 and/or iso-C17:1ω9c) and C16:0. Its polar lipids included phosphatidylethanolamine and four unidentified lipids. The dominant respiratory quinone was MK-7. The genomic DNA G + C content of strain OM2101T was 31.46%. Based on the phylogenetic, chemotaxonomic and phenotypic data obtained in this study, strain OM2101T is concluded to represent a novel species of the genus Bernardetia, for which the name Bernardetia aquimarina sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is OM2101T (= MCCC 1K09367T = KCTC 102328T).
