Streptococcus mutans murein hydrolase.
Article in Journal of bacteriology, 2005. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 11 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
Allelic replacement of the C terminus of a Streptococcus mutans surface protein affects murein hydrolase activity. The targeted open reading frame encodes a 67-kDa protein (SmaA) with an N-terminal signal sequence and cleavage site, three 46-amino-acid (aa) direct repeats, and two 88-aa direct repeats. The identical autolytic profile was obtained using a sortase mutant (SrtA(-)).
