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

A decrease in microbial infection in adolescents is implicated with an increase in the incidence of asthma and allergic diseases in adulthood, indicating that the microbiome plays a critical role in asthma. However, the microbial composition of the lower respiratory tract remains unclear, hindering the further exploration of the pathogenesis of asthma. This study aims to explore the microbial distribution and composition in the lungs of normal rats and rats with allergic asthma via 16S rDNA sequencing. The DNA of the pulmonary microbiome was extracted from the left lungs collected from normal control group (NC), saline control group (SC), and allergic asthma group (AA) under aseptic conditions. After the 16s rDNA V4-V5 region was amplified, the products were sequenced using Illumina high-throughput technology and subjected to operational taxonomic unit (OTU) cluster and taxonomy analysis. The OTU values of AA increased significantly compared with those of NC and SC. Microbiome structure analysis showed that the dominant phylum of the pulmonary microbiome changed from
