Unusual bacterial populations observed in a full-scale municipal sludge digester affected by intermittent seawater inputs.

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
This study investigated the bacterial community of a full-scale anaerobic digester, which suffers from intermittent seawater contaminations, using 16S rRNA gene clone analysis over different seasons. Bacteroidetes, Proteobacteria, and unclassifiable bacteria were the three major bacterial groups within the clone library (a total of 290 clones). A significant portion of the total clones (29.3%) was not affiliated to any previously reported phylum, and 55.3% of the unclassifiable clones (16.9% of the total clones) showed potential relations to the species of Thermotogae, rarely present under normal mesophilic anaerobic conditions. These results suggested that the novel populations may have the potential to play an important role in anaerobic processes, particularly under abnormal environmental conditions. Additionally, statistical analysis supported that seasonal variations in influent characteristics, and potential competitions among different populations, may be related to the unusual bacterial diversity and community dynamics observed over the study period.
