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
The aim of this study was to elucidate the biological functions of the motility regulatory protein CheZ in the probiotic strain Escherichia coli Nissle 1917. A cheZ gene deletion strain Nissle 1917ΔcheZ was constructed using the CRISPR/Cas9 two-plasmid system, and the corresponding complemented strain Nissle 1917ΔcheZ/pBR322-cheZ was established. Combined studies of growth kinetics testing, motility assays, swarming motility assays, and bacterial adherence assays were performed to study the motility regulatory protein CheZ-mediated functions in the prototype Nissle 1917 strain, its isogenic cheZ mutant, and the corresponding complemented strain. The growth rate of the cheZ mutant strain was lower than that of the wild-type strain in the exponential growth phase. The motility of the cheZ mutant strain was significantly lower than that of the wild-type strain. And the adhesion ability of ΔcheZ mutant to the Caco-2 cells was significantly lower than that of the wild-type strain and complemented strain. In conclusion, the results presented in our study suggested that the deletion of the cheZ gene in E. coli Nissle 1917 led to a significant reduction of its swimming ability and a subsequent marked decrease of adhesion to the Caco-2 cells.
