Evidence of Multi-Domain Morphological Structures in Living Escherichia coli.
Article in Scientific reports, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
A combination of light-microscopy and image processing was used to elaborate on the fluctuation in the width of the cylindrical part of Escherichia coli at sub-pixel-resolution, and under in vivo conditions. The mean-squared-width-difference along the axial direction of the cylindrical part of a number of bacteria was measured. The results reveal that the cylindrical part of Escherichia coli is composed of multi-domain morphological structures. The length of the domains starts at 150 nm in newborn cells, and linearly increases in length up to 300 nm in aged cells. The fluctuation in the local-cell-widths in each domain is less than the fluctuation of local-cell-widths between different domains. Local cell width correlations along the cell body occur on a length scale of less than 50 nm. This finding could be associated with the flexibility of the cell envelope in the radial versus longitudinal directions.
