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

To investigate the potential of autochthonous bioaugmentation to enhance the bioremediation of oil-contaminated soils at high temperatures, pristine Kuwaiti desert soil samples were contaminated with oil and bioaugmented with four autochthonous thermotolerant/thermophilic hydrocarbonoclastic bacteria, individually and as consortia. Even without bioaugmentation, all treated soil samples had similar cultivable communities after bioremediation. Throughout the year-long period, none of the four inoculated bacterial strains could be cultivated from the bioaugmented soils. In contrast, two of the inoculants,
