Gellan gum-based media recover more diverse microbial communities from soil material.
Article in Archives of microbiology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Soil microbial communities contain a huge proportion of microorganisms that cannot be cultured using standard microbiological media and are accessible only through molecular methods. These uncultivable microbes may include producers of biologically active compounds valuable for medicine, biotechnology, and agriculture. Development of approaches for cultivation of such groups is of paramount importance. Here we successfully replicate and confirm the accumulated observations on the fact that replacing agar with gellan gum as gelling agent and using nutrient-poor media leads to the more frequent recovery and enrichment of rare and hard-to-culture microbial phyla representatives. We also show that altering the gas mixture in the incubation chamber may promotes the isolation of specific microbial groups. Replacing agar with gellan gum is suggested as a strategy to recover new microbial species.
