How do Gram-negative bacteria escape predation by Bdellovibrio bacteriovorus?
Review in npj antimicrobials and resistance, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
Bdellovibrio bacteriovorus is a small predatory bacterium which reproduces by invading and killing Gram-negative bacteria. The natural antimicrobial activity of B. bacteriovorus has garnered interest for the potential to develop this predatory bacterium as a therapeutic agent. Transitioning B. bacteriovorus from 'bench to bedside' will require a complete understanding of all aspects of bacterial predation, including how prey species may escape predation. Here we discuss recent findings relating to how Gram-negative bacteria may escape predation.
