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

Allium species are popular vegetables in China and possess antifungal and antibacterial activities. This study aimed to compare the endophytic bacterial community in the four crucial Allium species in China, Chinese leek (CL), garlic (GA), onion (ON,) and Welsh onion (WO), using sequences of the V3-V4 region of the bacterial 16S rRNA gene. A total of 1,036,637 high-quality sequences and 719 operational taxonomic units (OTUs) were obtained across all libraries. A total of 20 phyla, 50 classes, 80 orders, 134 families, and 234 genera were identified. Among them, 18 OTUs and 19 genera were shared among the four Allium species. Proteobacteria (42.68%) and Bacteroidetes (20.18%) were the dominant phyla in CL, while one unclassified (>70%) was the dominant phyla in the other three Allium species. The alpha-diversity analysis showed the bacterial richness and diversity in CL were significantly higher than those in the other three Allium species. Principal coordinate analysis (PCA) showed endophytic bacterial communities in GA, WO, and ON were more similar than those in CL. Phylogenetic Investigation of Communities by Reconstruction of Unobserved States (PICRUSt) analysis revealed endophytic bacteria mostly enriched in Membrane Transport, Amino Acid Metabolism and Carbohydrate Metabolism pathway. 17 of the 23 Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) categories and 159 of the 206 lower-level KEGG pathways in CL were significantly higher than those in the other three Allium species. Pearson's correlation indicated that KEGG pathways with significant differences among the Allium species were closely related to the bacterial genera with significant differences between the Allium species. The findings of our study provided insight into the complex endophytic microbial communities in Allium species.
