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

Phages are one of the key components in the structure, dynamics, and interactions of microbial communities in different bins. It has a clear impact on human health and the food industry. Bacteriophage characterization using in vitro approaches are time/cost consuming and laborious tasks. On the other hand, with the advent of new high-throughput sequencing technology, the development of a powerful computational framework to characterize the newly identified bacteriophages is inevitable for future research. Machine learning includes powerful techniques that enable the analysis of complex datasets for knowledge discovery and pattern recognition. In this study, we have conducted a comprehensive review of machine learning methods application using different types of features were applied in various aspects of bacteriophage research including, automated curation, identification, classification, host species recognition, virion protein identification, and life cycle prediction. Moreover, potential limitations and advantages of the developed frameworks were discussed.
