IHF stabilizes pathogenicity island I of uropathogenic Escherichia coli strain 536 by attenuating integrase I promoter activity.
Article in Scientific reports, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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
Pathogenicity islands (PAIs) represent horizontally acquired chromosomal regions and encode their cognate integrase, which mediates chromosomal integration and excision of the island. These site-specific recombination reactions have to be tightly controlled to maintain genomic stability, and their directionality depends on accessory proteins. The integration host factor (IHF) and the factor for inversion stimulation (Fis) are often involved in recombinogenic complex formation and controlling the directionality of the recombination reaction. We investigated the role of the accessory host factors IHF and Fis in controlling the stability of six PAIs in uropathogenic Escherichia coli strain 536. By comparing the loss of individual PAIs in the presence or absence of IHF or Fis, we showed that IHF specifically stabilized PAI I
