Lysophosphatidylglycerol (LPG) phospholipase D maintains membrane homeostasis in Staphylococcus aureus by converting LPG to lysophosphatidic acid.
Article in The Journal of biological chemistry, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
Lysophospholipids are deacylated derivatives of their bilayer forming phospholipid counterparts that are present at low concentrations in cells. Phosphatidylglycerol (PG) is the principal membrane phospholipid in Staphylococcus aureus and lysophosphatidylglycerol (LPG) is detected in low abundance. Here, we used a mass spectrometry screen to identify locus SAUSA300_1020 as the gene responsible for maintaining low concentrations of 1-acyl-LPG in S. aureus. The SAUSA300_1020 gene encodes a protein with a predicted amino terminal transmembrane α-helix attached to a globular glycerophosphodiester phosphodiesterase (GDPD) domain. We determined that the purified protein lacking the hydrophobic helix (LpgDΔN) possesses cation-dependent lysophosphatidylglycerol phospholipase D activity that generates both lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) and cyclic-LPA products and hydrolyzes cyclic-LPA to LPA.
