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

Food spoilage caused by microbial contamination remains a significant challenge throughout the food production, processing, and storage chain, contributing substantially to global food waste and economic losses. In this study, L. fermentum MB1 was isolated from home-made curd and systematically evaluated for its probiotic and bio-active properties. The strain exhibited survival under acidic conditions (pH 2.0-3.0), moderate hydrophobicity (28.00-31.66%), and progressive auto-aggregation (29.00% at 12 h). It also showed strong co-aggregation with foodborne pathogens and was confirmed as γ-hemolytic, indicating safety. Antibacterial assays revealed broad inhibitory activity against both Gram-positive and Gram-negative food pathogens, while antifungal tests demonstrated effectiveness against common food spoilage fungi. Metabolite characterization through FTIR, HPTLC, and HR-LCMS confirmed the presence of diverse bioactive compounds. Additionally, the strain inhibited quorum-sensing-regulated traits, including biofilm formation, pigment production, and bacterial motility. Overall, these findings establish L. fermentum MB1 as a functionally strong probiotic candidate with significant potential for food biopreservation and the development of natural antimicrobial alternatives.
