Extraction and Purification of Wall-Bound Polymers of Gram-Positive Bacteria.
Article in Methods in molecular biology (Clifton, N.J.), 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
The envelope of gram-positive bacteria encompasses the cell wall, a rigid exoskeleton comprised of peptidoglycan that provides protection against lysis and governs bacterial cell shapes. Peptidoglycan also serves as the site of attachment for proteins and nonproteinaceous polymers that interact with the bacterial environment. Nonproteinaceous molecules include teichoic acids, capsular polysaccharides, and secondary cell wall polysaccharides (SCWP). Treatment of gram-positive bacterial cells with proteases, nucleases, and detergents results in the isolation of "murein sacculi" (i.e., peptidoglycan with bound carbohydrate polymers). Incubation of sacculi with acid or base releases carbohydrate polymers that can be purified for further biochemical characterization. This protocol describes the hydrofluoric acid extraction and purification of the secondary cell wall polymer of Bacillus anthracis that is also found in the envelope of the other members of the Bacillus cereus sensu lato group of bacteria.
