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

Commensal microorganisms are essential to the normal development and function of many aspects of animal biology. However, the dynamic shift patterns of the microbiota of different gut segments in sheep and the correlation between fat type large-tailed phenotype and microbiota remain poorly unknown. This study therefore sought to assess the composition and distribution of the intestinal microbiome, and compared the difference of gut microbiota from different gastrointestinal segments within breeds and same intestinal sections between breeds. For these analyses, 16S rRNA V4 regions from 4 gut sections prepared from each of six individuals (3 from each breed) were sequenced to detect the microbiome composition in these samples. These analyses revealed the presence of 51,173 operational taxonomic units distributed across 24 phyla and 420 genera in these samples, with Firmicutes and Bacteroidetes being the most prevalent phyla of microbes present in these samples. Moreover, the bacterial composition showed distinct microbial communities in different gastrointestinal segments within breed, but showed similar and relative fixed bacterial abundance in the same intestinal segments from individuals of different breeds. We also found that only a few bacterial species (
