Unlocking nitrogen regulation: structural insights into the NifL-NifA complex and prospects for engineered diazotrophs.
Article in The FEBS journal, 2026. 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
The urgent need for sustainable agriculture places biological nitrogen fixation at the forefront of current biotechnological research. Plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria play crucial roles in agriculture by enhancing nutrient absorption, regulating hormonal balance, and providing reduced nitrogen to plants. Among these, diazotrophic bacteria, such as Azotobacter vinelandii, stand out for their ability to fix atmospheric nitrogen and release it in bioavailable forms. In this issue of The FEBS Journal, scientists mapped the interaction between NifL and NifA proteins, which regulate nitrogen fixation in A. vinelandii and many other Proteobacteria. This understanding will allow for engineering bacteria to enhance nitrogen delivery to plants by improving nitrogen fixation.
