Differential distribution and occurrence of simple sequence repeats in diverse geminivirus genomes.
Article in Virus genes, 2012. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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
Microsatellites are tandem repeat sequences with repeat unit of one to six base pairs. Although, microsatellites have been studied in eukaryotes as well as prokaryotes, information on their occurrence on virus genomes is limited. We examined microsatellite distribution in 263 complete geminivirus genomes. Results indicated microsatellites to be an important component of geminiviral genomes. For each geminiviral genome, mono- and dinucleotide repeats were found to be highly predominant. Occurrence of microsatellites within geminiviral genome is significantly lesser than organisms with higher genome sizes and their number decreased with an increase in the length of repeat unit. Repeats of AT/TA, GT/TG, CT/TC, CTT/TTC, and GAA/AAG occurred with high frequency, whereas CG/GC, CGA/AGC, AAC/CAA, and GCT/TCG repeats had rare incidence. Interesting observation related to differential distribution of simple sequence repeats in genomic components of begomoviruses has been noted. We discussed the possible reasons for the observed divergence. To our knowledge, this is the first analysis of microsatellites occurring in any ssDNA viral genome for such purposes and represents a general approach for analysis of other viral genomes. The presence of microsatellites in geminiviral genomes may be used to obtain information regarding viral genetic diversity, evolution, and strain (isolate) identification.
