Mechanisms of iron mineralization in ferritins: one size does not fit all.
Review in Journal of biological inorganic chemistry : JBIC : a publication of the Society of Biological Inorganic Chemistry, 2014. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 38 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
Significant progress has been made in recent years toward understanding the processes by which an iron mineral is deposited within members of the ferritin family of 24mer iron storage proteins, enabled by high-resolution structures together with spectroscopic and kinetic studies. These suggest common characteristics that are shared between ferritins, namely, a highly symmetric arrangement of subunits that provides a protein coat around a central cavity in which the mineral is formed, channels through the coat that facilitate ingress and egress of ions, and catalytic sites, called ferroxidase centers, that drive Fe(2+) oxidation. They also reveal significant variations in both structure and mechanism amongst ferritins. Here, we describe three general types of structurally distinct ferroxidase center and the mechanisms of mineralization that they are associated with. The highlighted variation leads us to conclude that there is no universal mechanism by which ferritins function, but instead there exists several distinct mechanisms of ferritin iron mineralization.
