Article in Royal Society open science, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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 evolution of antibiotic resistance is a fundamental problem in disease management but is rarely quantified on a single-cell level owing to challenges associated with capturing the spatial and temporal variation across a population. To evaluate cell biological phenotypic responses, we tracked the single-cell dynamics of filamentous bacteria through time in response to ciprofloxacin antibiotic stress. We measured the degree of phenotypic variation in nucleoid length and the accumulation of protein damage under ciprofloxacin antibiotic and quantified the impact on bacterial survival. Increased survival was correlated with increased nucleoid length and the variation in this response was inversely correlated with antibiotic concentration. Survival time was also increased through clearance of misfolded proteins, an unexpected mechanism of stress relief deployed by the filamentous bacteria. Our results reveal a diverse range of survival tactics employed by bacteria in response to ciprofloxacin and suggest potential evolutionary routes to resistance.
