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
Properties of four two-component bacterial transport systems of the cation/proton antiporter-2 (CPA2) family led to suggestions that this CPA2 subset may use a channel rather than an antiport mechanism [see Booth IR, Edwards MD, Gunasekera B, Li C, Miller S (2005) in Bacterial Ion Channels, eds Kubalski A, Martinac B (Am Soc Microbiol, Washington, DC), pp 21-40]. The transporter subset includes the intensively studied glutathione-gated K(+) efflux systems from Escherichia coli, KefGB, and KefFC. KefG and KefF are ancillary proteins. They are peripheral membrane proteins that are encoded in operons with the respective transporter proteins, KefB and KefC, and are required for optimal efflux activity. The other two-component CPA2 transporters of the subset are AmhMT, an NH(4)(+) (K(+)) efflux system from alkaliphilic Bacillus pseudofirmus OF4; and YhaTU, a K(+) efflux system from Bacillus subtilis. Here a K(+)/H(+) antiport capacity was demonstrated for YhaTU, AmhMT, and KefFC in membrane vesicles from antiporter-deficient E. coli KNabc. The apparent K(m) for K(+) was in the low mM range. The peripheral protein was required for YhaU- and KefC-dependent antiport, whereas both AmhT and AmhMT exhibited antiport. KefFC had the broadest range of substrates, using Rb(+) approximately K(+)>Li(+)>Na(+). Glutathione significantly inhibited KefFC-mediated K(+)/H(+) antiport in vesicles. The inhibition was enhanced by NADH, which presumably binds to the KTN/RCK domain of KefC. The antiport mechanism accounts for the H(+) uptake involved in KefFC-mediated electrophile resistance in vivo. Because the physiological substrate of AmhMT in the alkaliphile is NH(4)(+), the results also imply that AmhMT catalyzes NH(4)(+)/H(+) antiport, which would prevent net cytoplasmic H(+) loss during NH(4)(+) efflux.
