Diversity of Contact-Dependent Growth Inhibition Systems of
Review in Journal of bacteriology, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 21 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
Contact-dependent growth inhibition (CDI) systems are used in bacterial competition to hinder the growth of neighboring microbes. These systems utilize a two-partner secretion mechanism to display the CdiA exoprotein at the bacterial cell surface. CdiA forms a long filamentous stalk that facilitates binding to a target cell and delivery of a C-terminal toxin (CT) domain. This CT domain is processed and delivered into the cytoplasm of a target cell upon contact. CDI systems also encode a cognate immunity protein (CdiI) that protects siblings and resistant targeted cells from intoxication by high-affinity binding to the CT. CdiA CT domains vary among strains within a species, and many alleles encode enzymatic functions that target nucleic acids. This variation is thought to help drive diversity and adaptation within a species. CdiA diversity is well studied in
