Microbial diversity in uterus of healthy and metritic postpartum Holstein dairy cows.
Article in Folia microbiologica, 2013. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 22 papers.
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
Clone library of bacterial 16S rRNA gene was constructed to evaluate the bacterial diversity and community structure of uterus samples obtained from three postpartum healthy cows and three metritic cows on days 10 and 40. Sequences were assigned to five major groups (Bacteroidetes, Firmicutes, Fusobacteria, Proteobacteria, and Tenericutes) and to an uncultured group. On day 10, Bacteroidetes, Firmicutes, and Fusobacteria were the dominant group both in healthy and metritic cows. On day 40, the major sequences were affiliated with Bacteroidetes, Firmicutes, Tenericutes, and Proteobacteria. Tenericutes (Ureaplasma diversum) were revealed only from healthy cows, while Proteobacteria (Histophilus somni) were found only from metritic cows. Quantitative PCR revealed that metritic cows on day 10 showed higher value of total bacteria, Bacteroidetes, Peptostreptococcus, and Fusobacterium compared with healthy cows, while only a higher value of Fusobacterium spp. was observed from the metritic cows on day 40 compared with that from healthy cows (P < 0.05). Our data indicates that great difference in the uterine bacterial community in both phyla level and species level exists between healthy and metritic postpartum cows, and dynamic changes in bacterial community occur over time.
