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

Thaumarchaeota constitute an abundant and ubiquitous phylum of Archaea that play critical roles in the global nitrogen and carbon cycles. Most well-characterized members of the phylum are chemolithoautotrophic ammonia-oxidizing archaea (AOA), which comprise up to 5 and 20% of the total single-celled life in soil and marine systems, respectively. Using two high-quality metagenome-assembled genomes (MAGs), here we describe a divergent marine thaumarchaeal clade that is devoid of the ammonia-oxidation machinery and the AOA-specific carbon-fixation pathway. Phylogenomic analyses placed these genomes within the uncultivated and largely understudied marine pSL12-like thaumarchaeal clade. The predominant mode of nutrient acquisition appears to be aerobic heterotrophy, evidenced by the presence of respiratory complexes and various organic carbon degradation pathways. Both genomes encoded several pyrroloquinoline quinone (PQQ)-dependent alcohol dehydrogenases, as well as a form III RuBisCO. Metabolic reconstructions suggest anaplerotic CO
