Experimental assessment of interactions between marine bacteria and model protists: from predator-prey relationships to bacterial-mediated lysis.
Article in Applied and environmental microbiology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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 in aquatic environments are a principal food source for predatory protists. Whereas interactions between bacteria and protists are recognized to determine the pathogenesis and epidemiology of several human pathogens, few studies have systematically characterized the interactions between specific aquatic bacteria and protists beyond the prey-predator relation. We, therefore, surveyed individual co-cultures between 18 different genome-sequenced marine bacteria with known virulence gene repertoires and three model protist species widely used for assessing bacteria-protist interactions. Strikingly, 10, 5, and 3 bacterial isolates were capable of lysing the protists
