The Thermococcales as a model system: historical perspectives and emerging tools.
Review in Journal of bacteriology, 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
Thermococcales are among the most widely studied hyperthermophilic Archaea and have become key models for understanding life at extreme temperatures. Early work in the 1980s culminated in the isolation of novel Thermococcales species from hydrothermal vents that grew rapidly, tolerated extreme heat, and metabolized diverse substrates, making them uniquely amenable for laboratory studies. Their thermostable enzymes and emerging genetic tools facilitated detailed investigations of core processes such as DNA replication, repair, and transcription under conditions that challenge most life forms. These practical advantages, together with the accumulation of tools and protocols, cemented the role of Thermococcales as a model system. Here, we recount how chance discoveries, environmental adaptations, and experimental practicality intersected to establish Thermococcales as a central model for studying archaeal biology and extremophile physiology.
