Ultrasmall epibiont
Article in Journal of oral microbiology, 2024. 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
Background: Oral Saccharibacteria Results: Transcriptomes of TM7× and host, XH001, were captured during the recovery phase and compared to uninfected host and the early host/epibiont interaction (initial encounter). XH001 showed increased expression for rhamnose cell wall components and for the precursor to peptidoglycan while TM7× showed increases in the peptidoglycan pathway. Transporter expression was generally increased for both organisms during recovery compared to the initial encounter, though, XH001 showed lower amino acid transporter expression. Consistent with host parasitism, XH001 showed increased expression of various stress-related genes during recovery while TM7× showed reduced stress. TM7× displayed higher expression of type IV pili, consistent with increased attachment to new hosts. Conclusion: As TM7× is a member of the broadly distributed Candidate Phyla Radiation with small genomes lacking numerous biosynthetic pathways, this study provides further insights into how these epibionts interact and modulate their host bacteria.
