A Comprehensive Study of Biohopanoid Production in Alphaproteobacteria: Biosynthetic, Chemotaxonomical, and Geobiological Implications.
Article in Geobiology. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Bacteriohopanepolyol derivatives (BHPDs) and dia- and catagenetic products formed from these bacterial membrane modifiers are extensively used as biomarkers in molecular ecological and geoscience studies. Some BHPDs can be assigned to specific phylogenetic bacterial groups. With the vastly increasing availability of complete bacterial genomes, hopanoid production can be readily predicted by the presence of specific genes encoding biosynthetic enzymes involved in their production, but the time-consuming physiological confirmation remains a critical element in the interpretation of such data in a biosynthetic and paleontological context. Alphaproteobacteria (APB) have often been proposed as important BHPD producers in a wide variety of environments and produce indicative BHPDs containing an additional methyl group in the A-ring, complicating the assignment of 2-methyl hopanes to N
