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

Bioremediation is a sustainable treatment strategy which remains challenging to implement especially in heterogeneous environments such as soil and sediment. Herein, we present a novel precision bioremediation framework that integrates amplicon based metagenomic analysis and chemical profiling. We applied this approach to samples obtained at a site contaminated with polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs). Geobacter spp. were identified as biostimulation targets because they were one of the most abundant genera and previously identified to carry relevant degradative genes. Mycobacterium and Sphingomonads spp. were identified as bioaugmentation and genetic bioaugmentation targets, respectively, due to their positive associations with PAHs and their high abundance and species diversity at all sampling locations. Overall, this case study suggests this framework can help identify bacterial targets for precision bioremediation. However, it is imperative that we continue to build our databases as the power of metagenomic based approaches remains limited to microorganisms currently in our databases.
