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
Delftia tsuruhatensis strains have long been known to promote plant growth and biological control. Recently, it has become an emerging opportunistic pathogen in humans. However, the genomic characteristics of the genetic diversity, pathogenicity, and biotechnological properties have not yet been comprehensively investigated. Here, a comparative pan-genome analysis was constructed. The open pan-genome with a large and flexible gene repertoire exhibited a high degree of genetic diversity. The purifying selection was the main force to drive pan-genome evolution. Significant differences were observed in the evolutionary relationship, functional enrichment, and degree of selective pressure between the different components of the pan-genome. A high degree of genetic plasticity was characterized by the determinations of diverse mobile genetic elements (MGEs), massive genomic rearrangement, and horizontal genes. Horizontal gene transfer (HGT) plays an important role in the genetic diversity of this bacterium and the formation of genomic traits. Our results revealed the occurrence of diverse virulence-related elements associated with macromolecular secretion systems, virulence factors associated with multiple nosocomial infections, and antimicrobial resistance, indicating the pathogenic potential. Lateral flagellum, T1SS, T2SS, T6SS, Tad pilus, type IV pilus, and a part of virulence-related genes exhibited general properties, whereas polar flagellum, T4SS, a part of virulence-related genes, and resistance genes presented heterogeneous properties. The pan-genome also harbors abundant genetic traits related to secondary metabolism, carbohydrate active enzymes (CAZymes), and phosphate transporter, indicating rhizosphere adaptation, plant growth promotion, and great potential uses in agriculture and biological control. This study provides comprehensive insights into this uncommon species from the genomic perspective.
