Short Communication: Anatomic Site of Sampling and the Rectal Mucosal Microbiota in HIV Negative Men Who Have Sex with Men Engaging in Condomless Receptive Anal Intercourse.
Article in AIDS research and human retroviruses, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 12 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
Rectal transmission accounts for the majority of HIV transmissions among men who have sex with men (MSM). We previously demonstrated a distinct rectal mucosal immune environment in MSM engaging in condomless receptive anal intercourse (CRAI) compared with men who do not engage in anal intercourse, including enrichment of the microbiota for the Prevotellaceae family as compared with Bacteroidaceae. Here, we expand upon these previous findings to determine differences by anatomic site of collection (anal vs. rectal mucosa) and examine associations of the predominant taxa with other genera. We analyzed 16SrRNA gene sequences of the V1-V2 region generated on an Illumina MiSeq
