Swashing: a propulsion-independent form of bacterial surface migration.
Article in Journal of bacteriology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Physical forces play a crucial role in microbial behavior. In free-swimming bacteria, the hydrodynamics of flagellar propulsion govern motility. On surfaces, physical interactions are equally important though often complex and easily overlooked. Surface migration occurs in many flagellated bacteria and has been linked to diverse mechanisms, such as flagellar propulsion, surface tension, osmolyte production, or combinations thereof. However, the relative importance of these physical effects remains unclear. Here, we describe "swashing," a form of surface movement in which bacteria migrate without active propulsion. Mutants of
