DNA/Cell Mass Homeostasis: Coordinating DNA Replication and Cell Size with Central Carbon Metabolism During Bacterial Growth.
Review in Genes, 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
DNA/cell mass homeostasis is a pervasive feature of living organisms. As the cell grows in response to nutrient availability, it must duplicate each chromosome once and only once each division cycle. Across the eukaryote Tree of Life, cells differ in their sizes in a manner that depends directly on the amount of DNA they harbor, what has been termed the "nucleotypic effect": cell size expands or contracts as DNA content increases or decreases. In eukaryotes, any deviation from DNA/mass homeostasis results in the deregulation of the developmental program and the initiation of carcinogenesis and other genetic pathologies. In bacteria, deviation from, or perturbation of, DNA/mass homeostasis alters important physiological features such as the cell cycle timing of DNA replication initiation and the coordination of initiation with replication termination and cell division. In prokaryotes, the timing of initiation occurs at a relatively constant and growth-rate-invariant mass, termed the initiation mass (
