Involvement of a Phage-Encoded Wzy Protein in the Polymerization of K127 Units To Form the Capsular Polysaccharide of Acinetobacter baumannii Isolate 36-1454.
Article in Microbiology spectrum, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 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
A comprehensive understanding of capsular polysaccharide (CPS) diversity is critical to implementation of phage therapy to treat panresistant Acinetobacter baumannii infections. Predictions from genome sequences can assist identification of the CPS type but can be complicated if genes outside the K locus (CPS biosynthesis gene cluster) are involved. Here, the CPS produced by A. baumannii clinical isolate 36-1454 carrying a novel K locus, KL127, was determined and compared to other CPSs. KL127 differs from KL128 in only two of the glycosyltransferase (
