Diffusive protein interactions in human versus bacterial cells.
Article in Current research in structural biology, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 19 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
Random encounters between proteins in crowded cells are by no means passive, but found to be under selective control. This control enables proteome solubility, helps to optimise the diffusive search for interaction partners, and allows for adaptation to environmental extremes. Interestingly, the residues that modulate the encounters act mesoscopically through protein surface hydrophobicity and net charge, meaning that their detailed signatures vary across organisms with different intracellular constraints. To examine such variations, we use
