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

Virulent bacteriophages (phages) can kill bacterial prey, potentially reducing burden of infection. In cholera, a high phage to Vibrio cholerae ratio is associated with mild dehydration, yet the relative importance of this ratio in disease severity remains unclear. We used machine learning to rank select host, microbial, and environmental factors as determinants of dehydration severity in over 600 cholera patients from across Bangladesh. We found the phage:pathogen ratio ranked among the top classifiers for mild dehydration, behind age and location. We advocate that phage predation be included as a key factor in cholera characterization for scientific, clinical, and epidemiological applications.
