A novel inducible prophage from the mycosphere inhabitant Paraburkholderia terrae BS437.
Article in Scientific reports, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 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
Bacteriophages constitute key gene transfer agents in many bacteria. Specifically, they may confer gene mobility to Paraburkholderia spp. that dwells in soil and the mycosphere. In this study, we first screened mycosphere and bulk soils for phages able to produce plaques, however found these to be below detection. Then, prophage identification methods were applied to the genome sequences of the mycosphere-derived Paraburkholderia terrae strains BS001, BS007, BS110 and BS437, next to P. phytofirmans strains BS455, BIFAS53, J1U5 and PsJN. These analyses revealed all bacterial genomes to contain considerable amounts [up to 13.3%] of prophage-like sequences. One sequence predicted to encode a complete phage was found in the genome of P. terrae BS437. Using the inducing agent mitomycin C, we produced high-titered phage suspensions. These indeed encompassed the progeny of the identified prophage (denoted ɸ437), as evidenced using phage major capsid gene molecular detection. We obtained the full sequence of phage ɸ437, which, remarkably, had undergone a reshuffling of two large gene blocks. One predicted moron gene was found, and it is currently analyzed to understand the extent of its ecological significance for the host.
