Hypothesis: nucleoid-associated proteins segregate with a parental DNA strand to generate coherent phenotypic diversity.

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
The generation of a phenotypic diversity that is coherent across a bacterial population is a fundamental problem. We propose here that the DNA strand-specific segregation of certain nucleoid-associated proteins or NAPs results in these proteins being asymmetrically distributed to the daughter cells. We invoke a variety of mechanisms as responsible for this asymmetrical segregation including those based on differences between the leading and lagging strands, post-translational modifications, oligomerisation and association with membrane domains.
