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 human digestive tract (DT) is differentiated into diverse niches and harbors the greatest microbiome diversity of our bodies. Segata et al. (2012) found that the microbiome of diverse habitats along the DT may be classified as four categories or niches with different microbial compositions and metabolic potentials. Nonetheless, few studies have offered theoretical interpretations of the observed patterns, not to mention quantitative mechanistic parameters. Such parameters should capture the essence of the fundamental processes that shape the microbiome distribution, beyond simple ecological metrics such as diversity or composition descriptors, which only capture the manifestations of the mechanisms. Here, we aim to get educated guesses for such parameters by adopting an integrated approach with multisite neutral (MSN) and niche-neutral hybrid (NNH) modeling,
