GdbMTB: a manually curated genomic database of magnetotactic bacteria.
Article in Database : the journal of biological databases and curation, 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
Magnetotactic bacteria (MTB) are a unique group of microorganisms capable of navigating along geomagnetic field lines through the biomineralization of intracellular magnetic nanocrystals called magnetosomes. While genomic analyses have substantially advanced our understanding of these predominantly uncultured microorganisms, MTB genomic data remain scattered across multiple databases with inconsistent quality profiles and incomplete metadata, limiting comprehensive research efforts. To address these challenges, we developed the Genomic Database of Magnetotactic Bacteria (GdbMTB), the first comprehensive, curated genomic resource dedicated to MTB. The current version of GdbMTB integrates 365 publicly available MTB genomes and their associated metadata. Through a standardized bioinformatics workflow, it provides detailed genome quality assessments, taxonomic classifications, and annotations of magnetosome biomineralization genes, ensuring reliable data for downstream analyses. The curated metadata, encompassing environmental context and publication details, offers crucial research background, enabling users to trace the provenance of each genome. Additionally, GdbMTB offers a suite of bioinformatics tools and an analysis pipeline to facilitate advanced MTB studies. GdbMTB enhances accessibility to MTB genomic data, thereby promoting interdisciplinary research in microbiology, geomicrobiology, and biomineralization studies. Database URL: https://www.gdbmtb.cn/.
