Sec pathway influences the growth of Deinococcus radiodurans.
Article in Current microbiology, 2015. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
The release of extracellular DNA molecules (eDNA) contributes to various biological processes, such as biofilm formation, virulence, and stress tolerance. The quantity of eDNA released by bacteria is usually regulated by extracellular nucleases that are secreted by different systems. In this study, we show that high concentrations of eDNA inhibit the growth of two strains of Deinococcaceae, Deinococcus radiodurans, and Deinococcus radiopugnans, but have no effect on other selected organisms, such as Escherichia coli. In D. radiodurans, an extracellular nuclease was shown to be secreted through the Sec pathway. Disruption of one member of this pathway, SecD/F, inhibited cell growth, suggesting that the Sec pathway plays an important role in growth rate. However, the Sec pathway mutant exhibited a greater deficiency in growth rate compared with the extracellular nuclease mutant, indicating that the pathway not only secretes the extracellular nuclease, but has other unknown functions as well.
