Differential radio-tolerance of nutrition-induced morphotypes of Deinococcus radiodurans R1.
Article in Current microbiology, 2014. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
Deinococcus radiodurans R1 is a highly radio-tolerant bacterium. Depending on the nutrient availability D. radiodurans R1 exists in three morphologies viz. monococcal, diplococcal and tetracoccal. In this study, we examined whether nutrition-induced morphotypes of D. radiodurans showed similar DNA damage upon gamma radiation exposure. Total DNA damage after radiation exposure was estimated by comparing percent double-strand breaks (DSBs) in genomic DNA. It was found that all three morphotypes exhibited different radiation tolerances which were also dependent on the radiation dose given. Monococcal forms were found to be most radio-tolerant at most of the tested radiation doses. Results showed that these nutrient-starved-condition induced morphotypes show lesser DNA DSBs upon irradiation, hence show higher radio-tolerance.
