The Role of Bacteriophage-Derived Small RNA Molecules in Bacterial and Phage Interactions.
Review in Viruses, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Small regulatory RNAs (sRNAs) play a critical role in bacterial gene expression, modulating various cellular processes, including stress responses, metabolism, virulence, and many others. While well-characterized in bacterial systems, an emerging class of phage-derived sRNAs has been identified, suggesting an underexplored regulatory network at phage-host interactions. These sRNAs, encoded within phage genomes, influence both bacterial and viral life cycles by modulating transcriptional and post-transcriptional gene expression processes. The interplay between phage-derived sRNAs and the host genome reveals a complex network of gene regulation, with an impact on bacterial fitness, pathogenesis, and horizontal gene transfer. This review explores the diverse functions of phage-encoded sRNAs, highlighting recent discoveries and their impact on bacterial physiology and phage-host interactions.
