Chemoorganoheterotrophic growth of Nitrosomonas europaea and Nitrosomonas eutropha.
Article in Current microbiology, 2009. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 14 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 ammonia oxidizers Nitrosomonas europaea and Nitrosomonas eutropha are able to grow chemoorganotrophically under anoxic conditions with pyruvate, lactate, acetate, serine, succinate, alpha-ketoglutarate, or fructose as substrate and nitrite as terminal electron acceptor. The growth yield of both bacteria is about 3.5 mg protein (mmol pyruvate)(-1) and the maximum growth rates of N. europaea and N. eutropha are 0.094 d(-1) and 0.175 d(-1), respectively. In the presence of pyruvate and CO2 about 80% of the incorporated carbon derives from pyruvate and about 20% from CO2. Pyruvate is used as energy and only carbon source in the absence of CO2 (chemoorganoheterotrophic growth). CO2 stimulates the chemoorganotrophic growth of both ammonia oxidizers and the expression of ribulose bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase is down-regulated at increasing CO2 concentration. Ammonium, although required as nitrogen source, is inhibitory for the chemoorganotrophic metabolism of N. europaea and N. eutropha. In the presence of ammonium pyruvate consumption and the expression of the genes aceE, ppc, gltA, odhA, and ppsA (energy conservation) as well as nirK, norB, and nsc (denitrification) are reduced.
