Diversification of polyketide structures
Review in MedChemComm, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
Polyketide natural products possess diverse biological activities including antibiotic, anticancer, and immunosuppressive. Their equally varied and complex structures arise from head-to-tail condensation of simple carboxyacyl monomers. Since the seminal discovery that biosynthesis of polyketides such as the macrolide erythromycin is catalyzed by uncharacteristically large, multifunctional enzymes, termed modular type I polyketide synthases, chemists and biologists alike have been inspired to harness the apparent modularity of the synthases to further diversify polyketide structures. Yet, initial attempts to perform "combinatorial biosynthesis" failed due to challenges associated with maintaining the structural and catalytic integrity of large, chimeric synthases. Fast forward nearly 30 years, and advancements in our understanding of polyketide synthase structure and function have allowed the field to make significant progress toward effecting desired modifications to polyketide scaffolds in addition to engineering small, chiral fragments. This review highlights selected examples of polyketide diversification
