Novel Bacteriophages in Enterococcus spp.
Article in Current microbiology, 2010. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 15 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
Most of the bacteriophages (phages) currently reported in Enterococcus spp. belong to tailed families of bacteriophages Podoviridae, Siphoviridae, and Myoviridae. There is a little information on non-tailed bacteriophages isolated from enterococci. Samples of sewage and piggery effluents were tested on pig and chicken isolates of Enterococcus faecalis, E. faecium and E. gallinarum for lytic phages. In addition, isolates were exposed to mitomycin C to induce lysogenic phages. Bacteriophages that were detected were visualized by electron microscopy. Ten bacteriophages were of isometric shape with long flexible or non-flexible tails, while one had a long head with a long flexible tail; all contained double-stranded DNA molecules. Seven Polyhedral, filamentous, and pleomorphic-shaped phages containing DNA or RNA were also observed. The pleomorphic phages were droplet- or lemon-shaped in morphology. This study is the first report on polyhedral phages in Enterococcus spp. of animal origin and also the first report of filamentous and pleomorphic phages in enterococci.
