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

Oil reservoirs contain microbial populations that are both autochthonously and allochthonously introduced by industrial development. These microbial populations are greatly influenced by external factors including, but not limited to, salinity and temperature. In this study, we used metagenomics to examine the microbial populations within five wells of the same hydrocarbon reservoir system in the Gulf of Mexico. These elevated salinity (149-181 ppt salinity, 4-5× salinity of seawater) reservoirs have limited taxonomic and functional microbial diversity dominated by methanogens,
