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

Total community 16S rDNA was used to determine the diversity and composition of bacteria and archaea within lakes Olbolosat and Oloiden in Kenya. The V3-V4 hypervariable region of the 16S rRNA gene was targeted since it's highly conserved and has a higher resolution for lower rank taxa. High throughput sequencing was performed on 15 samples obtained from the two lakes using the Illumina Miseq platform. Lakes Olbolosat and Oloiden shared 280 of 10,523 Amplicon Sequence Variants (ASVs) recovered while the four sample types (water, microbial mats, dry and wet sediments) shared 4 ASVs. The composition of ASVs in lake Olbolosat was highly dependent on Cu
