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

In recent years, Enteromorpha prolifera blooms had serious impacts on costal environments and fisheries in China. Nevertheless, the effects of E. prolifera on microbial ecology remain unknown. In this study, for the first time, an Illumina sequencing analysis was used to investigate bacterial communities in source water, aquaculture ponds with E. prolifera, and an aquaculture pond in which E. prolifera -free. Principal coordinate and phylogenic analyses revealed obvious differences among the bacterial communities in the pond water with and without E. prolifera. Abundant bacterial taxa in the E. prolifera-containing pond were generally absent from the pond without E. prolifera. Interestingly, pond water with E. prolifera was dominated by Actinomycetales (> 50%), as well as by anaerobic bacteria in the underlying sediment (Desulfobacterales and Desulfuromonadales (> 20%). Pond water in which E. prolifera-free was dominated by Rhodobacterales (58.19%), as well as aerobic and facultative anaerobic bacteria in the sediment. In addition, the ecological functions of other dominant bacteria, such as Candidatus Aquiluna, Microcella spp., and Marivita spp., should be studied in depth. Overall, massive growth of E. prolifera will have serious effects on bacterial communities, and, thus, it will have an important impact on the environment. The novel findings in this study will be valuable for understanding green tides.
