Functional Analysis of Shiga Toxin-Producing Escherichia coli Biofilm Components in Plant Leaves.
Article in Methods in molecular biology (Clifton, N.J.), 2021. 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
Plants represent alternative or secondary hosts for Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli (STEC), enabling transmission of the pathogens through the food chain on horticultural crops. This becomes a public health concern for plants that are eaten raw or minimally processed, such as leafy salad and fruits. STEC actively interact with plants as hosts, and so to determine the mechanistic basis to the interaction, it is necessary to assess STEC gene function in planta. Here, we describe analysis of an STEC biofilm component, curli, that plays a role in STEC colony formation in plant leaves. It also serves as a suitable example of the approaches required for qualitative and quantitative assessment of functional host colonization traits.
