Glycine Betaine and Ectoine Are the Major Compatible Solutes Used by Four Different Halophilic Heterotrophic Ciliates.
Article in Microbial ecology, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. An erratum has been issued. Cited by 11 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
One decisive factor controlling the distribution of organisms in their natural habitats is the cellular response to environmental factors. Compared to prokaryotes, our knowledge about salt adaptation strategies of microbial eukaryotes is very limited. We, here, used a recently introduced approach (implementing proton nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy) to investigate the presence of compatible solutes in halophilic, heterotrophic ciliates. Therefore, we isolated four ciliates from solar salterns, which were identified as Cyclidium glaucoma, Euplotes sp., Fabrea salina, and Pseudocohnilembus persalinus based on their 18S rRNA gene signatures and electron microscopy.
