Laboratory Plasticware Induces Expression of a Bacterial Virulence Factor.
Article in mSphere, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Pollution with microplastic has become a prime environmental concern. The various ways in which human-made polymers and microorganisms interact are little understood, and this is particularly true for microplastic and pathogenic microorganisms. Previous reports demonstrated that expression of central virulence-associated protein A (VapA) of the pathogenic bacterium Rhodococcus equi is shut off at 30°C, whereas it is strongly expressed at 37°C, a temperature which may serve as an intrahost cue. Here, we show that cultivation at 30°C in disposable plastic tubes increases mRNA levels of
