Density Functional Theory Investigation of As(III) S-Adenosylmethionine Methyltransferase.
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 2 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
Arsenic is one of the most pervasive environmental toxins. It enters our water and food supply through many different routes, including the burning of fossil fuels, the application of arsenic-based herbicides, and natural sources. Using a density functional theory (DFT) cluster approach, the mechanism of arsenic (III) S-adenosylmethionine methyltransferases and various selenium-containing analogues was investigated. Notably, the methylation of arsenic by arsenic (III) S-adenosylmethionine is proposed to be a way to remove arsenic from contaminated water or soil. From the DFT cluster results, it was found that the selective substitution of the active-site Cys44, Cys72, and Cys174 residues with selenocysteines had a marginal effect on the barrier for CH
