Seasonal Diversity of Microeukaryotes in the Han River, Korea Through 18S rRNA Gene Metabarcoding.
Article in Evolutionary bioinformatics online, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
Freshwater ecosystems contain a large diversity of microeukaryotes that play important roles in maintaining their structure. Microeukaryote communities vary in composition and abundance on the basis of temporal and environmental variables and may serve as useful bioindicators of environmental changes. In the present study, 18S rRNA metabarcoding was employed to investigate the seasonal diversity of microeukaryote communities during four seasons in the Han River, Korea. In total, 882 unique operational taxonomic units (OTUs) were detected, including various diatoms, metazoans (e.g., arthropods and rotifers), chlorophytes, and fungi. Although alpha diversity revealed insignificant differences based on seasons, beta diversity exhibited a prominent variation in the community composition as per seasons. The analysis revealed that the diversity of microeukaryotes was primarily driven by seasonal changes in the prevailing conditions of environmental water temperature and dissolved oxygen. Moreover, potential indicator OTUs belonging to diatoms and chlorophytes were associated with seasonal and environmental factors. This analysis was a preliminary study that established a continuous monitoring system using metabarcoding. This approach could be an effective tool to manage the Han River along with other freshwater ecosystems in Korea.
