H-bond network around retinal regulates the evolution of ultraviolet and violet vision.
Article in ACS chemical biology, 2011. 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
Ancestors of vertebrates used ultraviolet vision. Some descendants preserved ultraviolet vision, whereas some others replaced it with violet vision, and then, some of avian lineages reinvented ultraviolet vision. Ultraviolet (absorption at ∼360 nm) and violet (410-440 nm) sensitivities of visual pigments are known to be affected by around 20 amino acid substitutions. The present quantum mechanical/molecular mechanical calculations show that these substitutions modify a H-bond network formed by two waters and sites 86, 90, 113, 114, 118, and 295, which determines the protonation state of Schiff base linked 11-cis-retinal. A pigment is ultraviolet-sensitive when it is more stable with an unprotonated retinal (SBR) form than with its protonated analogue (PSBR) and is violet-sensitive when the PSBR form is more stable. These results establish for the first time the chemical basis of ultraviolet and violet vision in vertebrates.
