Study of oral microbiota diversity among groups of families originally from different countries.
Article in Saudi journal of biological sciences, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
The diversity of oral microbiota is affected by diets habits, gender, age, ethnic group, and environment. The acquisition of oral microbiota and the role of family on oral microbiota development is poorly understood. This study aims to characterize and compare the oral bacterial microbiota among families using 16S rRNA gene sequencing. This work was conducted in Jeddah city from 2020 to 2021, in which four families composed of 20 members of different ethnicity and lifestyle were recruited. After the collection of saliva samples, the DNA was extracted and processed for 16S rRNA gene metagenomics sequencing. Among 378 OUTs generated, 39 (10.3%) were unique in group A, 13 (3.4%) unique in group B, and 11 (2.9%) were unique in groups C and D. We observed a significant variation at the level of top abundance phylum (14), families (23), genera (24), and species (22) of bacteria among family members. Within family groups, different bacterial species were reported to be more dominant among certain family members than the other;
