The influence of bacterial interaction on the virulence of Cryptococcus neoformans.
Article in Virulence, 2015. 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
Microbes exist in complex communities in the environment. The interaction between fungi, such as the opportunistic pathogen Cryptococcus neoformans, and antagonistic environmental bacteria, such as Acinetobacter spp., may influence fungal evolution through the production of fungal defence mechanisms that inadvertently enhance fungal pathogenicity. Such changes include alteration of biofilm formation and increased capsule production. The molecular mechanisms responsible for such changes, both from a bacterial and fungal point of view, are of great interest to understanding the evolution of pathogenicity. Additionally, further elucidation of the stability of the induced changes in C. neoformans, and the impacts of these change on the disease-causing potential of this fungus, is of great interest.
