Structural and dynamic properties of bacterial type IV secretion systems (review).
Review in Molecular membrane biology. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 54 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
The type IV secretion systems (T4SS) are widely distributed among the gram-negative and -positive bacteria. These systems mediate the transfer of DNA and protein substrates across the cell envelope to bacterial or eukaryotic cells generally through a process requiring direct cell-to-cell contact. Bacteria have evolved T4SS for survival during establishment of pathogenic or symbiotic relationships with eukaryotic hosts. The Agrobacterium tumefaciens VirB/D4 T4SS and related conjugation machines serve as models for detailed mechanistic studies aimed at elucidating the nature of translocation signals, machine assembly pathways and architectures, and the dynamics of substrate translocation. The A. tumefaciens VirB/D4 T4SS are polar-localized organelles composed of a secretion channel and an extracellular T pilus. These T4SS are assembled from 11 or more subunits. whose membrane topologies, intersubunit contacts and, in some cases, 3-dimensional structures are known. Recently, powerful in vivo assays have identified C-terminal translocation signals, defined for the first time the translocation route for a DNA substrate through a type IV secretion channel, and supplied evidence that ATP energy consumption contributes to a late stage of machine morphogenesis. Together, these recent findings describe the mechanics of type IV secretion in unprecedented detail.
