Carboxysomes: cyanobacterial RubisCO comes in small packages.
Review in Photosynthesis research, 2011. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 46 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
Cyanobacteria (as well as many chemoautotrophs) actively pump inorganic carbon (in the form of HCO(3)(-)) into the cytosol in order to enhance the overall efficiency of carbon fixation. The success of this approach is dependent upon the presence of carboxysomes-large, polyhedral, cytosolic bodies which sequester ribulose 1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase (RubisCO) and carbonic anhydrase. Carboxysomes seem to function by allowing ready passage of HCO(3)(-) into the body, but hindering the escape of evolved CO(2), promoting the accumulation of CO(2) in the vicinity of RubisCO and, consequently, efficient carbon fixation. This selectivity is mediated by a thin shell of protein, which envelops the carboxysome's enzymatic core and uses narrow pores to control the passage of small molecules. In this review, we summarize recent advances in understanding the organization and functioning of these intriguing, and ecologically very important molecular machines.
