1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Sequencing the environmental rRNA genes of Microcystis populations, such as by internal transcribed spacer (ITS), has been proven to provide a new insight into the genetic diversity of Microcystis in freshwater. In this study, a 19-month monitoring of Microcystis populations in a hyper-eutrophic pond in Wuhan city, China was conducted through molecular method by sequencing ITS fragments from the environmental DNA library. Three hundred twenty ITS genotypes of Microcystis in this pond were identified from a total of 563 sequences, thus exhibiting high genetic diversity of Microcystis in the pond. Dramatic changes and succession in ITS genotypes were also found during the survey period. Despite the absence of significant dominant ITS genotypes in the pond, several main genotypes were found to have been dominated for a short term. However, Microcystis ITS genotype patterns from 2007 to 2008 presented a complicated situation in this pond. The parsimony network (TCS) analysis showed that two groups were formed based on ITS genotypes.
