Mechanistic divergence between SOS response activation and antibiotic-induced plasmid conjugation in
Article in Microbiology spectrum, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 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
The SOS response is a critical DNA damage repair mechanism in bacteria, designed to counteract genotoxic stress and ensure survival. This system can be activated by different classes of antimicrobial agents, each inducing the SOS response through different mechanisms. Moreover, it has been observed that certain antibiotics can enhance conjugative plasmid transfer frequencies. However, while previous studies have suggested that the SOS response contributes to horizontal transfer of certain genes, its role in plasmid conjugation remains unclear. In this study, we investigated the relationship between the SOS response and conjugation of IncI1 and IncFII plasmids harboring various
