Polar flagellum biogenesis in Aeromonas hydrophila.
Article in Journal of bacteriology, 2006. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. An erratum has been issued. Cited by 45 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
Mesophilic Aeromonas spp. constitutively express a single polar flagellum that helps the bacteria move to more favorable environments and is an important virulence and colonization factor. Certain strains can also produce multiple lateral flagella in semisolid media or over surfaces. We have previously reported 16 genes (flgN to flgL) that constitute region 1 of the Aeromonas hydrophila AH-3 polar flagellum biogenesis gene clusters. We identified 39 new polar flagellum genes distributed in four noncontiguous chromosome regions (regions 2 to 5). Region 2 contained six genes (flaA to maf-1), including a modification accessory factor gene (maf-1) that has not been previously reported and is thought to be involved in glycosylation of polar flagellum filament. Region 3 contained 29 genes (fliE to orf29), most of which are involved in flagellum basal body formation and chemotaxis. Region 4 contained a single gene involved in the motor stator formation (motX), and region 5 contained the three master regulatory genes for the A. hydrophila polar flagella (flrA to flrC). Mutations in the flaH, maf-1, fliM, flhA, fliA, and flrC genes, as well as the double mutant flaA flaB, all caused loss of polar flagella and reduction in adherence and biofilm formation. A defined mutation in the pomB stator gene did not affect polar flagellum motility, in contrast to the motX mutant, which was unable to swim even though it expressed a polar flagellum. Mutations in all of these genes did not affect lateral flagellum synthesis or swarming motility, showing that both A. hydrophila flagellum systems are entirely distinct.
