Recent insights into Wzy polymerases and lipopolysaccharide O-antigen biosynthesis.
Review in Journal of bacteriology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 11 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
Bacteria synthesize a plethora of complex surface-associated polysaccharides which enable them to persist and thrive in distinct niches. These glycans serve an array of purposes pertaining to virulence, colonization, antimicrobial resistance, stealth, and biofilm formation. The Wzx/Wzy-dependent pathway is universally the predominant system for bacterial polysaccharide synthesis. This system is responsible for the production of lipopolysaccharide (LPS) O-antigen (Oag), enterobacterial common antigen, capsule, and exopolysaccharides, with orthologs present in both Gram-negative and Gram-positive microbes.
