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

Genomic islands (GIs) that are associated with microbial adaptations and carry sequence patterns different from that of the host are sporadically distributed among closely related species. This bias can dominate the signal of interest in GI detection. However, variations still exist among the segments of the host, although no uniform standard exists regarding the best methods of discriminating GIs from the rest of the genome in terms of compositional bias. In the present work, we proposed a robust software, MTGIpick, which used regions with pattern bias showing multiscale difference levels to identify GIs from the host. MTGIpick can identify GIs from a single genome without annotated information of genomes or prior knowledge from other data sets. When real biological data were used, MTGIpick demonstrated better performance than existing methods, as well as revealed potential GIs with accurate sizes missed by existing methods because of a uniform standard.
