Comparative genomic analysis of Acinetobacter spp. plasmids originating from clinical settings and environmental habitats.
Article in Scientific reports, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 30 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
Bacteria belonging to the genus Acinetobacter have become of clinical importance over the last decade due to the development of a multi-resistant phenotype and their ability to survive under multiple environmental conditions. The development of these traits among Acinetobacter strains occurs frequently as a result of plasmid-mediated horizontal gene transfer. In this work, plasmids from nosocomial and environmental Acinetobacter spp. collections were separately sequenced and characterized. Assembly of the sequenced data resulted in 19 complete replicons in the nosocomial collection and 77 plasmid contigs in the environmental collection. Comparative genomic analysis showed that many of them had conserved backbones. Plasmid coding sequences corresponding to plasmid specific functions were bioinformatically and functionally analyzed. Replication initiation protein analysis revealed the predominance of the Rep_3 superfamily. The phylogenetic tree constructed from all Acinetobacter Rep_3 superfamily plasmids showed 16 intermingled clades originating from nosocomial and environmental habitats. Phylogenetic analysis of relaxase proteins revealed the presence of a new sub-clade named MOBQ
