Protein interactions within and between two F-type type IV secretion systems.
Article in Molecular microbiology, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 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
Bacterial type IV secretion systems (T4SSs) can mediate conjugation. The T4SS from Neisseria gonorrhoeae possesses the unique ability to mediate DNA secretion into the extracellular environment. The N. gonorrhoeae T4SS can be grouped with F-type conjugative T4SSs based on homology. We tested 17 proteins important for DNA secretion by N. gonorrhoeae for protein interactions. The BACTH-TM bacterial two-hybrid system was successfully used to study periplasmic interactions. By determining if the same interactions were observed for F-plasmid T4SS proteins and when one interaction partner was replaced by the corresponding protein from the other T4SS, we aimed to identify features associated with the unique function of the N. gonorrhoeae T4SS as well as generic features of F-type T4SSs. For both systems, we observed already described interactions shared by homologs from other T4SSs as well as new and described interactions between F-type T4SS-specific proteins. Furthermore, we demonstrate, for the first-time, interactions between proteins with homology to the conserved T4SS outer membrane core proteins and F-type-specific proteins and we confirmed two of them by co-purification.
