Identification of a Region in Shigella flexneri WzyB Disrupting the Interaction with Wzz
Article in Journal of bacteriology, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
Shigella flexneri can synthesize polysaccharide chains having complex sugars and a regulated number of repeating units. S. flexneri lipopolysaccharide O antigen (Oag) is synthesized by the Wzy-dependent pathway, which is the most common pathway used in bacteria for polysaccharide synthesis. The inner membrane protein WzyB polymerizes the Oag repeat units into chains, while the polysaccharide copolymerases WzzB and Wzz
