Synthetase and Hydrolase Specificity Collectively Excludes 2'-Deoxyguanosine from Bacterial Alarmone.
Article in bioRxiv : the preprint server for biology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
In response to starvation, virtually all bacteria pyrophosphorylate the 3'-hydroxy group of GTP or GDP to produce two messenger nucleotides collectively denoted as (p)ppGpp. Also known as alarmones, (p)ppGpp reprograms bacterial physiology to arrest growth and promote survival. Intriguingly, although cellular concentration of dGTP is two orders of magnitude lower than that of GTP, alarmone synthetases are highly selective against using 2'-deoxyguanosine (2dG) nucleotides as substrates. We thus hypothesize that production of 2dG alarmone, (p)pp(dG)pp, is highly deleterious, which drives a strong negative selection to exclude 2dG nucleotides from alarmone signaling. In this work, we show that the
