Research is overrated. Almost everyone has some form of research on their app so it's not a special thing to separate oneself from the rest like it was some years ago. And most of the ones with research experience are like whatever since they are near the bottom of the totem pole on the author list. Unless you're the main author or co-author or 2nd author or engage in research with a famous renown researcher or was part of a research team that cured cancer, then it's no big deal.
Personally, I have ZERO research experience and I received 7 interviews, 3 of which I already interviewed and scored 2 offers. Among the 4 remaining, I declined 2 interviews and will attend the other two later this month. Some of these 7 schools are research based programs so there you go, proof is in the pudding.
At the end of the day, what really matters are your DAT and GPAs in this specific order. Everything else is extra icing on the cake.
