Ferrichrome: bacterial function, synthetic mimics, and biomedical applications.
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
Iron is an essential micronutrient for most living organisms, but its bioavailability is limited. To facilitate iron uptake, many bacteria and fungi secrete siderophores, which are small, high-affinity iron-chelating molecules. Siderophores play a key role in microbial competition and immune evasion, and additionally serve as an entry point for bacteriophages and toxins. Ferrichrome, a well-studied fungal hydroxamate siderophore, is utilized as an iron source by numerous bacterial species, including human-associated and pathogenic bacteria. Ferrichrome is a cyclic hexapeptide composed of three glycine residues and three N
