Bacterial and archaeal community structures in perennial cave ice.
Article in Scientific reports, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 17 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
Ice entrenched microcosm represents a vast reservoir of novel species and a proxy for past climate reconstitution. Among glacial ecosystems, ice caves represent one of the scarcely investigated frozen habitats. To characterize the microbial diversity of perennial ice from karst ecosystems, Roche 454 sequencing of 16S rRNA gene amplicons from the underground ice block of Scarisoara Ice Cave (Romania) was applied. The temporal distribution of bacterial and archaeal community structures from newly formed, 400, and 900 years old ice layers was surveyed and analyzed in relation with the age and geochemical composition of the ice substrate. The microbial content of cave ice layers varied from 3.3 10
