Antibiotic effect and microbiome persistence vary along the European seabass gut.
Article in Scientific reports, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 14 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
The constant increase in aquaculture production has led to extensive use of antibiotics as a means to prevent and treat diseases, with adverse implications on the environment, animal health and commensal microbes. Gut microbes are important for the host proper functioning, thus evaluating such impacts is highly crucial. Examining the antibiotic impact on gut segments with different physiological roles may provide insight into their effects on these microhabitats. Hence, we evaluated the effect of feed-administrated antibiotics on the composition and metabolic potential of the gut microbiome in the European seabass, an economically important aquaculture species. We used quantitative PCR to measure bacterial copy numbers, and amplicon sequencing of the 16S rRNA gene to describe the composition along the gut, after 7-days administration of two broad-range antibiotic mixtures at two concentrations. While positive correlation was found between antibiotic concentration and bacterial abundance, we showed a differential effect of antibiotics on the composition along the gut, highlighting distinct impacts on these microbial niches. Moreover, we found an increase in abundance of predicted pathways related to antibiotic-resistance. Overall, we show that a high portion of the European seabass gut microbiome persisted, despite the examined antibiotic intake, indicating high stability to perturbations.
