A novel metatranscriptomic approach to identify gene expression dynamics during extracellular electron transfer.
Article in Nature communications, 2013. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 60 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
Microbial respiration via extracellular electron transfer (EET) is a ubiquitous reaction that occurs throughout anoxic environments and is a driving force behind global biogeochemical cycling of metals. Here we identify specific EET-active microbes and genes in a diverse biofilm using an innovative approach to analyse the dynamic community-wide response to changing EET rates. We find that the most significant gene expression responses to applied EET stimuli occur in only two microbial groups, Desulfobulbaceae and Desulfuromonadales. Metagenomic analyses reveal high coverage draft genomes of these abundant and active microbes. Our metatranscriptomic results show known and unknown genes that are highly responsive to EET stimuli and associated with our identified draft genomes. This new approach yields a comprehensive image of functional microbes and genes related to EET activity in a diverse community, representing the next step towards unravelling complex microbial roles within a community and how microbes adapt to specific environmental stimuli.
