Replication and conjugative mobilization of broad host-range IncQ plasmids.
Review in Plasmid, 2009. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 96 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 IncQ plasmids have a broader host-range than any other known replicating element in bacteria. Studies on the replication and conjugative mobilization of these plasmids, which have mostly been focused on the nearly identical RSF1010 and R1162, are summarized with a view to understanding how this broad host-range is achieved. Several significant features of IncQ plasmids emerge from these studies: (1) initiation of replication, involving DnaA-independent activation of the origin and a dedicated primase, is strictly host-independent. (2) The plasmids can be conjugatively mobilized by a variety of different type IV transporters, including those engaged in the secretion of proteins involved in pathogenesis. (3) Stability is insured by a combination of high copy-number and modulated gene expression to reduce metabolic load.
