Amino Acid Complexation Fractionates Nickel Isotopes: Implications for Tracing Nickel Cycling in the Environment.
Article in Environmental science & technology letters, 2025. 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
Nickel (Ni) is an essential cofactor in many proteins. Ni stable isotopes have been shown to undergo isotope fractionation in microorganisms and plants. However, the mechanisms driving this fractionation are poorly understood. Here, we present experimental data on Ni isotope fractionation during binding by common Ni-binding amino acids: glutamate (carboxylate side chain), histidine (imidazole side chain), and cysteine (sulfhydryl side chain). We used an equilibrium Donnan dialysis approach to separate free versus bound Ni and measured the isotopic composition of both pools via multicollector inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (MC-ICP-MS). Our results reveal that the glutamate and cysteine favor heavy
