Strain-Level Profiling of Oral Microbiota with Targeted Sequencing.

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
Targeted sequencing of one or more regions of the bacterial 16S rRNA gene fragment has emerged as a gold standard for investigating taxonomic diversity in complex microbial communities, such as those found in the oral cavity. While this approach is useful for identifying bacteria up to genus level, its ability to distinguish between many closely related oral species, or explore strain-level variations within each species, is very limited. Here we present an approach based on targeted sequencing the 16S-23S Intergenic Spacer Region (ISR) in the bacterial ribosomal operon for taxonomic characterization of microbial communities at a subspecies or strain level. This approach retains the advantages of 16S-based methods, such as easy library preparation, high throughput, short amplicon sizes, and low cost of sequencing, while providing subspecies-level resolution as a result of naturally higher genetic diversity present in the ISR compared to the 16S hypervariable regions. These advantages make it an excellent tool for high-resolution oral microbiota characterization.
