Article in mBio, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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
Mutations in regulatory mechanisms that control gene expression contribute to phenotypic diversity and thus facilitate the adaptation of microbes and other organisms to new niches. Comparative genomics can be used to infer rewiring of regulatory architecture based on large effect mutations like loss or acquisition of transcription factors but may be insufficient to identify small changes in noncoding, intergenic DNA sequence of regulatory elements that drive phenotypic divergence. In human-derived Vibrio cholerae, the response to distinct chemical cues triggers production of multiple transcription factors that can regulate the type VI secretion system (T6), a broadly distributed weapon for interbacterial competition. However, to date, the signaling network remains poorly understood because no regulatory element has been identified for the major T6 locus. Here we identify a conserved
