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

Metagenomic next-generation sequencing (mNGS) holds promise as a diagnostic tool for unbiased pathogen identification and precision medicine. However, its medical utility depends largely on assay simplicity and reproducibility. In the current study, we aimed to develop a streamlined Illumina and Oxford Nanopore-based DNA/RNA library preparation protocol and rapid data analysis pipeline. The Illumina sequencing-based mNGS method was first developed and evaluated using a set of samples with known aetiology. Its sensitivity for RNA viruses (influenza A, H1N1) was < 6.4 × 10
