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

Two Gram-stain-negative, oxidase- and catalase-producing, facultatively aerobic, non-motile rod-shaped bacteria, designated AW1-32T and MW01-1-1T, were isolated from wetland soil in South Korea. Strain AW1-32T grew at 10–37 °C, pH 6.0–8.0, and 0–3.5% (w/v) NaCl, whereas strain MW01-1-1T grew at 10–37 °C, pH 6.0–8.0, and 0–1.5% (w/v) NaCl. The genomes of strains AW1-32T and MW01-1-1T comprised single chromosomes of 5,091 kb and 4,646 kb, with G + C contents of 38.5 mol% and 37.5 mol%, respectively. The two strains shared 95.6% 16 S rRNA gene sequence similarity, 73.6% average nucleotide identity (ANI), and 20.7% digital DNA-DNA hybridization (dDDH), supporting their classification as distinct species. Phylogenetic analyses based on 16 S rRNA gene sequences and whole-genome data placed the two strains in separate lineages within the genus Pedobacter. Strain AW1-32T exhibited < 96.7% 16 S rRNA gene similarity, < 74.8% ANI, and < 20.2% dDDH with all type strains, while strain MW01-1-1T showed < 97.9% 16 S rRNA gene similarity, < 74.9% ANI, and < 20.8% dDDH with all type strains, all below species delineation thresholds. These results support their recognition as novel species. Menaquinone-7 was the sole respiratory quinone in both strains, and the major fatty acids (> 10%) were iso-C15:0 and summed feature 3 (C16:1 ω7c and/or C16:1 ω6c). Phosphatidylethanolamine was the predominant polar lipid. Based on phylogenetic, phenotypic, and genomic characteristics, strains AW1-32T and MW01-1-1T represent two novel species of the genus Pedobacter, for which the names Pedobacter terrestris sp. nov. (AW1-32T = KACC 23850T = JCM 37595T) and Pedobacter paludisoli sp. nov. (MW01-1-1T = KACC 23866T = JCM 37596T) are proposed.
