Perspectives in lung microbiome research.
Review in Current opinion in microbiology, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 13 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
Our understanding of the existence and role of the lung microbiome has grown at a slower pace than other microbiome research areas. This is likely a consequence of the original dogma that the lung was a sterile environment although there are other barriers that are worth discussing. Here we will not be conducting an exhaustive review of the current literature on the lung microbiome, but rather we will focus on what we see as some important challenges that the field needs to face in order to improve our mechanistic understanding of the lung microbiome and its role on human health.
