Polyols and UV-sunscreens in the Prasiola-clade (Trebouxiophyceae, Chlorophyta) as metabolites for stress response and chemotaxonomy.
Article in Journal of phycology, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 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
In many regions of the world, aeroterrestrial green algae of the Trebouxiophyceae (Chlorophyta) represent very abundant soil microorganisms, and hence their taxonomy is crucial to investigate their physiological performance and ecological importance. Due to a lack in morphological features, taxonomic and phylogenetic studies of Trebouxiophycean algae can be a challenging task. Since chemotaxonomic markers could be a great assistance in this regard, 22 strains of aeroterrestrial Trebouxiophyceae were chemically screened for their polyol-patterns as well as for mycosporine-like amino acids (MAAs) in their aqueous extracts using RP-HPLC and LC-MS. d-sorbitol was exclusively detected in members of the Prasiolaceae family. The novel MAA prasiolin and a related compound ("prasiolin-like") were present in all investigated members of the Prasiola-clade, but missing in all other tested Trebouxiophyceae. While prasiolin could only be detected in field material directly after extraction, the "prasiolin-like" compound present in the other algae was fully converted into prasiolin after 24 h. These findings suggest d-sorbitol and prasiolin-like compounds are suitable chemotaxonomic markers for the Prasiolaceae and Prasiola-clade, respectively. Additional UV-exposure experiments with selected strains show that MAA formation and accumulation can be induced, supporting their role as UV-sunscreen.
