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

Phenazines are redox-active microbial metabolites produced and secreted in diverse ecological contexts from soils to chronic infections. In these disparate environments phenazines can function variously as antibiotics, extracellular electron shuttles, and nutrient scavengers. Key to understanding the impact of these functions is a robust expectation of phenazine retention or diffusion in a given context. But predicting phenazine fate and transport is difficult because of the chemical complexity of their local microenvironments. To address this challenge, we measured the octanol water distribution coefficient (LogD) as a proxy for lipophilicity of three naturally occurring phenazines produced by the opportunistic pathogen
