The volatile organic compound dimethylhexadecylamine affects bacterial growth and swarming motility of bacteria.
Article in Folia microbiologica, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. 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
Bacteria have developed different intra- and inter-specific communication mechanisms that involve the production, release, and detection of signaling molecules, because these molecules serve as the autoinducers involved in "quorum sensing" systems. Other communication mechanisms employ volatile signaling molecules that regulate different bacterial processes. The Arthrobacter agilis strain UMCV2 is a plant growth promoting actinobacterium, which induces plant growth and inhibits phytopathogenic fungi by emitting the dimethylhexadecylamine (DMHDA). However, little is known about the effect of this volatile compound on A. agilis UMCV2 itself, as well as on other bacteria. By exposing A. agilis UMCV2 and bacteria of the genus Bacillus and Pseudomonas to different concentrations of DMHDA, this study showed the dose-dependent effects of DMHDA on A. agilis UMCV2 growth, cellular viability, swarming motility, and expression of marker genes of the flagellar apparatus of bacteria. DMHDA was found to also modulate swarming motility of Bacillus sp. ZAP018 and P. fluorescens UM270, but not that of P. aeruginosa PA01. These data indicate that DMHDA is involved in both intra- and inter-specific bacterial interaction.
