Horizontally-acquired genetic elements in the mitochondrial genome of a centrohelid Marophrys sp. SRT127.
Article in Scientific reports, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 12 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
Mitochondrial genomes exhibit diverse features among eukaryotes in the aspect of gene content, genome structure, and the mobile genetic elements such as introns and plasmids. Although the number of published mitochondrial genomes is increasing at tremendous speed, those of several lineages remain unexplored. Here, we sequenced the complete mitochondrial genome of a unicellular heterotrophic eukaryote, Marophrys sp. SRT127 belonging to the Centroheliozoa, as the first report on this lineage. The circular-mapped mitochondrial genome, which is 113,062 bp in length, encodes 69 genes typically found in mitochondrial genomes. In addition, the Marophrys mitochondrial genome contains 19 group I introns. Of these, 11 introns have genes for homing endonuclease (HE) and phylogenetic analyses of HEs have shown that at least five Marophrys HEs are related to those in green algal plastid genomes, suggesting intron transfer between the Marophrys mitochondrion and green algal plastids. We also discovered a putative mitochondrial plasmid in linear form. Two genes encoded in the circular-mapped mitochondrial genome were found to share significant similarities to those in the linear plasmid, suggesting that the plasmid was integrated into the mitochondrial genome. These findings expand our knowledge on the diversity and evolution of the mobile genetic elements in mitochondrial genomes.
