Quantification of Marine Picocyanobacteria on Water Column Particles and in Sediments Using Real-Time PCR Reveals Their Role in Carbon Export.
Article in mSphere, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Picocyanobacteria are the most abundant primary producers in the ocean and play a fundamental role in marine carbon cycling. Quantification of picocyanobacteria on sinking particles and in sediments is essential to understanding their contribution to the biological carbon pump. We designed a primer set targeting the 16S-23S rRNA internal transcribed spacer (ITS) sequence of cyanobacteria and established a quantitative PCR (qPCR) method for quantifying the ITS sequence abundance. High-throughput sequencing confirmed that this primer set can cover broad diversities of marine picocyanobacteria and avoid amplification of other marine cyanobacteria such as
