Reads Binning Improves Alignment-Free Metagenome Comparison.
Article in Frontiers in genetics, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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
Comparing metagenomic samples is a critical step in understanding the relationships among microbial communities. Recently, next-generation sequencing (NGS) technologies have produced a massive amount of short reads data for microbial communities from different environments. The assembly of these short reads can, however, be time-consuming and challenging. In addition, alignment-based methods for metagenome comparison are limited by incomplete genome and/or pathway databases. In contrast, alignment-free methods for metagenome comparison do not depend on the completeness of genome or pathway databases. Still, the existing alignment-free methods,
