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

Tocosh, an ancestral fermented potato product, relies on spontaneous processes near freshwater springs under extreme high-altitude conditions and represents an underexplored reservoir of microbial diversity with significant potential for the discovery of probiotics. This study provides, for the first time, a comprehensive probiogenomic characterization of 19 lactic acid bacteria (LAB) isolated from tocosh, in the Peruvian Andes, at three distinct altitudes-2992, 3882, and 4451 m above sea level (m.a.s.l.)-using whole genome sequencing (WGS) and bioinformatic profiling. A total of six species were identified:
