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

High abundance of microplastics in the environment and its potential dangers have been an increasingly emerging topic in the last decade. Thus far, research on microplastics has focused mainly on water systems, sewage, and soil, where they have been described as additional surfaces and vectors for microorganism growth and transmission. In our study we hypothesized that microplastics play a role in aiding the survival of bacteria in clinical or food production environments by influencing effectiveness of routine disinfection. To test this hypothesis, two typical foodborne pathogens,
