Synthesis of Crystalline Silica-Carbonate Biomorphs of Ba(II) under the Presence of RNA and Positively and Negatively Charged ITO Electrodes: Obtainment of Graphite via Bioreduction of CO
Article in ACS omega, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Since Earth was formed, in the Precambrian era up until our present days, electric current has participated in the morphology and chemical composition of organic and inorganic structures. Attempting to elucidate the mechanism by which electric current participated in the creation of the first cell in the Precambrian era is an intriguing and of a permanent subject of interest to be studied. One way of emulating the formation of structures similar to those that might have existed in the Precambrian era in the presence of a biomolecule and an electric current source is to use as a model, the silica-carbonate of alkaline earth metal compounds known as biomorphs. The objective of this work was to assess the influence exerted by an electric current (negatively or positively charged indium tin oxide electrodes) on the formation of biomorphs in the presence of RNA. The compounds obtained under both electric charges were visualized through scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and their chemical composition was analyzed through Raman spectroscopy. The biomorphs obtained under a positive electric current correspond to aragonite-type BaCO
