Heterotrophic bacterial bioleaching and sequestration of uranium from mineral resources: a review.
Review in Frontiers in microbiology, 2026. 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
Heterotrophic bacterial leaching of uranium from rocks and ores and cellular sequestration are examined in this review. Heterotrophic microbial bioleaching solubilizes uranium by acidolysis and complexolysis and involves sequestration by organic acids, extracellular polymeric substances (EPS), lipopolysaccharides, and siderophores produced by bacteria. Citric and oxalic acids are often the dominant organic acids, but spent growth media also contain mixtures of other < C6 carboxylic acids. The leach solution (lixiviant) is based on organic acids in spent media, and the mode of leaching is proton attack on uranium ore coupled with sequestration of uranyl ions (
