Chloroplast sulfate transport in green algae--genes, proteins and effects.
Review in Photosynthesis research, 2005. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 18 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
This review summarizes evidence at the molecular genetic, protein and regulatory levels concerning the existence and function of a putative ABC-type chloroplast envelope-localized sulfate transporter in the model unicellular green alga Chlamydomonas reinhardtii. From the four nuclear genes encoding this sulfate permease holocomplex, two are coding for chloroplast envelope-targeted transmembrane proteins (SulP and SulP2), a chloroplast stroma-targeted ATP-binding protein (Sabc) and a substrate (sulfate)-binding protein (Sbp) that is localized on the cytosolic side of the chloroplast envelope. The sulfate permease holocomplex is postulated to consist of a SulP-SulP2 chloroplast envelope transmembrane heterodimer, flanked by the Sabc and the Sbp proteins on the stroma side and the cytosolic side of the inner envelope, respectively. The mature SulP and SulP2 proteins contain seven transmembrane domains and one or two large hydrophilic loops, which are oriented toward the cytosol. The corresponding prokaryotic-origin genes (SulP and SulP2) probably migrated from the chloroplast to the nuclear genome during the evolution of Chlamydomonas reinhardtii. These genes, or any of its homologues, have not been retained in vascular plants, e.g. Arabidopsis thaliana, although they are encountered in the chloroplast genome of a liverwort (Marchantia polymorpha). The function of the SulP protein was probed in antisense transformants of C. reinhardtii having lower expression levels of the SulP gene. Results showed that cellular sulfate uptake capacity was lowered as a consequence of attenuated SulP gene expression in the cell, directly affecting rates of de novo protein biosynthesis in the chloroplast. The antisense transformants exhibited phenotypes of sulfate-deprived cells, displaying slow rates of light-saturated oxygen evolution, low levels of Rubisco in the chloroplast and low steady-state levels of the Photosystem II D1 reaction center protein. The role of the chloroplast sulfate transport in the uptake and assimilation of sulfate in Chlamydomonas reinhardtii is discussed along with its impact on the repair of Photosystem II from a frequently occurring photo-oxidative damage and H2-evolution related metabolism in this green alga.
