Secondary structure and phylogeny of the chloroplast 23S rRNA gene from the brown alga Pylaiella littoralis.
Article in Plant molecular biology, 1993. 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 entire nucleotide sequence of a 23S rRNA gene from the brown alga Pylaiella littoralis (L.) Kjellm has been determined. The predicted length of the 23S rRNA is 2948 nucleotides, including the 4.5S rRNA-like region at the 3' end of the molecule. The putative transcript has been folded into a secondary structure by comparison to existing structure models, and the predicted helical regions were inspected by identifying compensatory downstream base changes. The 23S rRNA secondary structure presented here has features that are unique to P. littoralis (no other chromophyte or red algal 23S rRNA sequences are yet available), but has none of the features specific to the chloroplast rRNAs of green plants and green algae. The Pylaiella sequence was aligned with analogous plastidial and eubacterial gene sequences, and the alignment was used to construct a phylogenetic tree. The plastidial sequences formed a coherent cluster closely associated with the 23S rRNA of the cyanobacterium Anacystis nidulans. Within the plastid group, the P. littoralis sequence was most closely related to that of Euglena gracilis confirming earlier analyses based upon 16S rRNA sequences.
