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

Undergraduate research experience (URE) positively contributes to student success, STEM identity, and STEM post-graduate careers. Despite these benefits, traditional UREs are limited, and many students encounter barriers to gaining access to these opportunities. Course-based Undergraduate Research Experiences (CUREs) increase access to UREs by incorporating authentic research projects into the course curriculum. Despite the recognized benefits of CUREs, few have been developed for introductory or upper-level microbiology courses. This scarcity largely reflects the substantial planning and financial investment required of faculty to create effective CUREs that are affordable, relevant, and align with course learning objectives. These combined demands present significant challenges to widespread adoption of CUREs in microbiology education. We considered these limitations when developing the "MicrobioME" CURE for implementation in pathogenic microbiology laboratory courses. Students participating in the MicrobioME CURE isolate and identify bacterial isolates from their own skin microbiome and investigate the impact of isolate-produced small molecules on
