Phytochelatins as a Dynamic System for Cd(II) Buffering from the Micro- to Femtomolar Range.
Article in Inorganic chemistry, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 22 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
Phytochelatins (PCs) are short Cys-rich peptides with repeating γ-Glu-Cys motifs found in plants, algae, certain fungi, and worms. Their biosynthesis has been found to be induced by heavy metals-both biogenic and toxic. Among all metal inducers, Cd(II) has been the most explored from a biological and chemical point of view. Although Cd(II)-induced PC biosynthesis has been widely examined, still little is known about the structure of Cd(II) complexes and their thermodynamic stability. Here, we systematically investigated glutathione (GSH) and PC2-PC6 systems, with regard to their complex stoichiometries and spectroscopic and thermodynamic properties. We paid special attention to the determination of stability constants using several complementary techniques. All peptides form CdL complexes, but CdL
