On monospecific genera in prokaryotic taxonomy.
Article in Synthetic and systems biotechnology, 2017. 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
A monospecific genus contains a single species ever since it was proposed. Though formally more than half of the known prokaryotic genera are monospecific, we pick up those which actually raise taxonomic problems by violating monophyly of the taxon within which it resides. Taking monophyly as a guiding principle, our arguments are based on simultaneous support from 16S rRNA sequence analysis and whole-genome phylogeny of prokaryotes, as provided by the LVTree Viewer and CVTree Web Server, respectively. The main purpose of this study consists in calling attention to this specific way of global taxonomic analysis. Therefore, we refrain from making formal emendations for the time being.
