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

The significance of microbial community structure has been extensively recognized due to its key roles in metabolism, immunity, and health maintenance. Importantly, increasing evidence indicated that the dynamic distribution of microbial community structure can be used for evaluating the health condition of host. Yaks (Bos grunniens), mainly inhabiting in high-altitude hypoxic environment, are characterized by excellent adaptability and strong resistance. Currently, it has been determined that yaks possessed the complicated gastrointestinal microbial ecosystem, whereas not much is known about the nasal microbial community structure of yaks. Therefore, this study was performed to compare and analyze the differences in nasal microbiota of yaks with different ages by high-throughput sequencing. In this study, a total of 487,168 and 486,498 high-quality sequences were achieved from YYG (1-month-old yaks) and AYG (1-year-old yaks), respectively. Additionally, 5,340 operational taxonomic units (OTUs) were identified and 657 OTUs were in common among all samples. Proteobacteria and Firmicutes were the two most predominant phyla in all samples. Moreover, Actinobacteria and Bacteroidetes were the tertiary dominant phyla in YYG and AYG, respectively. At the level of genus, Moraxella, Faucicola, and Mannheimia were the most preponderant bacterial genera in the young and adult yaks. As compared to the AYG, the proportions of Actinobacillus, Parabacteroides, and Haemophilus in the YYG were significantly increased, whereas the Rhizobacter was decreased. In conclusion, this study firstly compared and investigated the distribution of nasal microbiota in yaks with different ages. Results demonstrated that age was an important factor affecting the nasal microbiota. Moreover, the current study will provide a theoretical basis for the further study on the microbial community structure of yaks.
