Heterotrophic growth of microalgae: metabolic aspects.
Review in World journal of microbiology & biotechnology, 2015. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 35 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
Microalgae are considered photoautotrophic organisms, however several species have been found living in environments where autotrophic metabolism is not viable. Heterotrophic cultivation, i.e. cell growth and propagation with the use of an external carbon source under dark conditions, can be used to study the metabolic aspects of microalgae that are not strictly related to photoautotrophic growth and to obtain high value products. This manuscript reviews studies related to the metabolic aspects of heterotrophic grow of microalga. From the physiological and metabolic perspective, the screening of microalgal strains in different environments and the development of molecular and metabolic engineering tools, will lead to an increase in the number of known microalgae species that growth under strict heterotrophic conditions and the variety of carbon sources used by these microorganisms.
