Article in mBio, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 15 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
Protocatechuic acid (3,4-dihydroxybenzoic acid) is a chemical building block for polymers and plastics. In addition, protocatechuic acid has many properties of great pharmaceutical interest. Much research has been performed in creating bacterial protocatechuic acid production strains, but no protocatechuic acid-producing fungal cell factories have been described. The filamentous fungus Aspergillus niger can produce protocatechuic acid as an intermediate of the benzoic acid metabolic pathway. Recently, the
