A review of quorum-sensing and its role in mediating interkingdom interactions in the ocean.
Review in Communications biology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 14 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
Quorum sensing, first described in marine systems five decades ago, is a well-characterized chemical communication system used to coordinate bacterial gene expression and behavior; however, the impact of quorum sensing on interkingdom interactions has been vastly understudied. In this review, we examine how these molecules mediate communication between bacteria and marine eukaryotes; influencing processes such as development, disease pathogenesis, and microbiome regulation within marine ecosystems. We describe the varied mechanisms eukaryotes have evolved to interfere with bacterial quorum sensing signaling, the crucial role these signals play in host-virus interactions, and how their exchange may be governed by outer membrane vesicles, prevalent in marine systems. Here, we present a dynamic portrayal of the impact of quorum sensing signals beyond bacterial communication, laying the groundwork for future investigations on their roles in shaping marine ecosystem structure and function.
