Flow Cytometric Screening Reveals Nucleic Acid Dyes Aberrantly Stain Peptidoglycan Sacculi.
Article in ACS infectious diseases, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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.
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
Flow cytometry is an essential tool to discern phenotypic and functional differences in single cell mixtures. Most efforts to develop and deploy multicolor flow panels have focused on mammalian cells, whereas a more limited palette of tools exists for microbiota and pathogen-focused analyses. Here, we describe a systematic screen of commercially available nucleic acid dyes to aid in the development of multicolor panels for both Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria. We found that dyes show responses that varied by orders of magnitude across two model bacteria. When examining whether dyes can help to discriminate intact cells from noncellular debris, we discovered that certain compounds also bind to purified peptidoglycan with intensities comparable to those observed with bacterial binding. Together, these data will aid in the selection of specific reagents to use in the development of larger scale, multicolor panels for microbial flow cytometry.
