The Proteobacterial Methanotroph
Article in mBio, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Methane is a potent greenhouse gas in the atmosphere, and its concentration has continued to increase in recent decades. Aerobic methanotrophs, bacteria that use methane as the sole carbon source, are an important biological sink for methane, and they are widely distributed in the natural environment. However, relatively little is known on how methanotroph activity is regulated by nutrients, particularly phosphorus (P). P is the principal nutrient constraining plant and microbial productivity in many ecosystems, ranging from agricultural land to the open ocean. Using a model methanotrophic bacterium, Methylosinus trichosporium OB3b, we demonstrate here that this bacterium can produce P-free glycolipids to replace membrane phospholipids in response to P limitation. The formation of the glycolipid monoglucuronic acid diacylglycerol requires
