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
PmlR2, a class II LitR/CarH family transcriptional regulator, and PmSB-LOV, a "short" LOV-type blue light photoreceptor, are adjacently encoded in Pseudomonas mendocina NBRC 14162. An effector protein for the "short" LOV-type photoreceptor in Pseudomonas has not yet been identified. Here, we show that PmlR2 is an effector protein of PmSB-LOV. Transcriptional analyses revealed that the expression of genes located near pmlR2 and its homolog gene, pmlR1, was induced in response to illumination. In vitro DNA-protein binding analyses showed that recombinant PmlR2 directly binds to the promoter region of light-inducible genes. Furthermore PmSB-LOV exhibited a typical LOV-type light-induced spectral change. Gel-filtration chromatography demonstrated that the illuminated PmSB-LOV was directly associated with PmlR2, whereas non-illuminated proteins did not interact. The inhibition of PmlR2 function following PmSB-LOV binding was verified by surface plasmon resonance: the DNA-binding ability of PmlR2 was specifically inhibited in the presence of blue light-illuminated-PmSB-LOV. An In vitro transcription assay showed a dose-dependent reduction in PmlR2 repressor activity in the presence of illuminated PmSB-LOV. Overall, evidence suggests that the DNA-binding activity of PmlR2 is inhibited by its direct association with blue light-activated PmSB-LOV, enabling transcription of light-inducible promoters by RNA polymerase.
