Coexistence of Psychrophilic, Mesophilic, and Thermophilic Sulfate-Reducing Bacteria in a Deep Subsurface Aquifer Associated with Coal-Bed Methane Production.
Article in Microbial ecology, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
The microbial community of subsurface environments remains understudied due to limited access to deep strata and aquifers. Coal-bed methane (CBM) production is associated with a large number of wells pumping water out of coal seams. CBM wells provide access to deep biotopes associated with coal-bed water. Temperature is one of the key constraints for the distribution and activity of subsurface microorganisms, including sulfate-reducing prokaryotes (SRP). The 16S rRNA gene amplicon sequencing coupled with in situ sulfate reduction rate (SRR) measurements with a radioactive tracer and cultivation at various temperatures revealed that the SRP community of the coal bed water of the Kuzbass coal basin is characterized by an overlapping mesophilic-psychrophilic boundary. The genus Desulfovibrio comprised a significant share of the SRP community. The D. psychrotolerans strain 1203, which has a growth optimum below 20 °C, dominated the cultivated SRP. SRR in coal bed water varied from 0.154 ± 0.07 to 2.04 ± 0.048 nmol S cm
