Dynamics of microbial populations and strong selection for Cycloclasticus pugetii following the Nakhodka oil spill.
Article in Microbial ecology, 2003. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 22 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
Microbial population changes were monitored immediately after the Nakhodka oil spill accident in January 1997 at the heavily oil-contaminated Mikuni coast along the Sea of Japan. The total cell number was almost stable for one year at 2-5 x 10(5) cells mL(-1), while the relative occurrence of culturable heterotrophs and degraders of oil components such as C-heavy oil, kerosene, and n-tetradecane varied, showing a maximum (>50% of the total) immediately following the accident. Gene amplification and phylogenetic analysis of a dilution culture using C-heavy oil as the sole carbon and energy source revealed that one of the predominant oil degraders at the oil-contaminated coast in 2 weeks after the accident closely resembled the aromatic hydrocarbon decomposer Cycloclasticus pugetii. Microbial community composition in oil-contaminated seawater was estimated at the molecular level using newly developed oligonucleotide probes, probe wash-off curve estimation, and quantitative fluorescence dot-blot hybridization techniques. At two different oil-polluted sites, harbor and intertidal regions, the C. pugetii group was estimated to make up 23-25% of the total Bacteria population, followed by the aliphatic hydrocarbon decomposer Alcanivorax borkumensis, which formed 4-7% of the Bacteria. In incubation experiments using floated oil slick and indigenous microbes collected at the harbor, oil degradation activities were enhanced by the addition of both organic and inorganic nutrients. Significant decreases were found in aromatic and aliphatic hydrocarbon fractions: 54-60% and 22-24% in 2 weeks to 68-77% and 23-32% in 2 months, respectively.
