pH-dependent spectroscopy of tetracycline and its analogs.
Article in Journal of fluorescence, 2014. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Tetracyclines (TCs), broad spectrum antibiotics widely used in the prevention and treatment of infectious diseases, are amphoteric molecules containing several ionizable functional groups that exist predominantly as zwitterions at a given pH value. TCs are reported to undergo a wide variety of reactions at different pH values i.e. TCs form to anhydrotetracyclines at low pH, 4-epitetracyclines at pH 3-5 and isotetracyclines at high pH values. The pH-dependent absorbance and emission properties of tetracycline and its 10 analogs (4-epitetracycline, doxycyline, oxytetracycline, chlortetracycline, 4-epichlortetracycline, isochlortetracycline, methacycline, rolitetracycline, minocycline, and demeclocycline) were investigated and reported in this paper. The main focus of the study was on the pH dependent transformation of epichlortetracycline, chlortetracycline and isotetracycline at basic pH. Absorption, emission and time resolved spectroscopy were used to determine the behavior of the three TC derivatives at this condition. Increasing the buffer's ionic concentration leads to faster transformation to iCTC. A pH dependent transformation of CTC to iCTC was observed and the lifetimes of CTC and iCTC were determined to be 3.0 and 5.89 ns respectively. The distribution factor of CTC to iCTC at basic pH was also reported for the first time.
