Channelrhodopsin-Dependent Photo-Behavioral Responses in the Unicellular Green Alga Chlamydomonas reinhardtii.
Review in Advances in experimental medicine and biology, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 11 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
Channelrhodopsins (ChRs) are the light-gated ion channels that have opened the research field of optogenetics. They were originally identified in the green alga Chlamydomonas reinhardtii, a biciliated unicellular alga that inhabits in freshwater, swims with the cilia, and undergoes photosynthesis. It has various advantages as an experimental organism and is used in a wide range of research fields including photosynthesis, cilia, and sexual reproduction. ChRs function as the primary photoreceptor for the cell's photo-behavioral responses, seen as changes in the manner of swimming after photoreception. In this chapter, we will introduce C. reinhardtii as an experimental organism and explain our current understanding of how the cell senses light and shows photo-behavioral responses.
