Characterization of a temperate bacteriophage isolated from the ruminant-derived Streptococcus bovis/equinus complex.
Article in Scientific reports, 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
Although Streptococcus bovis/equinus complex (SBSEC) lysogens are prevalent in the rumen, studies on prophages experimentally induced from these strains are limited. Herein, we screened inducible prophages from ruminant-derived SBSEC strains, including the newly reported S. ruminicola, leading to the characterization of a representative temperate phage. We successfully induced a temperate phage (vB_SbS-proRumen) from S. ruminicola KCCM 90354, which has a broad host range, capable of lysing several SBSEC strains and other lactic acid bacteria. The vB_SbS-proRumen belongs to the Siphovirus, characterized by a short latent period, high burst size, and stability across pH and temperature conditions typical of subacute ruminal acidosis. The phage also demonstrates potent anti-biofilm activity. The vB_SbS-proRumen has a 38,092 bp double-stranded DNA genome with 58 predicted open reading frames, sharing high similarity and conserved genetic organization with other previously predicted SBSEC prophages. This study provides valuable insights into the diversity and plasticity of SBSEC phages.
