Structural and functional insights into sulfated galactans: a systematic review.
Synthesis in Glycoconjugate journal, 2010. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 24 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
Sulfated galactans (SGs) are highly anionic marine galactose-composed homopolysaccharides. Although their structures vary among species, their main features are conserved among phyla. Green algal SGs are quite heterogeneous, although preponderantly composed of 3-beta-D-Galp units. The red algal SGs (like agar and carrageen) are composed of repeating disaccharide units with different sulfation patterns which vary among species. The SGs from invertebrates such as sea urchins and ascidians (tunicates), and from the unique description of a sea-grass, are composed of well-defined repetitive units. Chains of 3-linked beta-galactoses are highly conserved in some marine taxonomic groups, with a strong tendency toward 4-sulfation in algae and marine angiosperm, and 2-sulfation in invertebrates. These carbohydrates are extracellular components of the cell wall in plants, of the body wall in tunicates, and of the jelly coat in sea urchin eggs. In sea urchins, the SGs are also responsible to induce the acrosome reaction. However, the wide range of potential pharmacological uses, especially as anticoagulants and antithrombotics, is the main reason for the increasing interest in these sugars. Both natural and clinical actions of SGs have a direct relation to their structural features, since the intermolecular complexes between SG and target proteins are much more stereospecific than only electric charge-dependent. This review will present an overview about the principle structural and functional information of SGs. Other important aspects concerning occurrence, biology, phylogeny, and future directions, will also be reported.
