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

Previous studies were mainly focused on genomic evolution and diversity of type species of Bifidobacterium genus due to their health-promoting effect on host. However, those studies were mainly based on species-level taxonomic resolution, adaptation, and characterization of carbohydrate metabolic features of the bifidobacterial species. Here, a comprehensive analysis of the type strain genome unveils the association of pan-genome evolution with the divergence of metabolic function of the Bifidobacterium genus. This study has also demonstrated that horizontal gene transfer, as well as genome expansion and reduction events, leads to the divergence of metabolic functions in Bifidobacterium genus. Furthermore, the genome-based search of probiotic traits among all the available bifidobacterial type strains gives hints on type species, that could confer health benefits to nutrient-deficient individuals. Altogether, the present study provides insight into the developments of genomic evolution, functional divergence, and potential probiotic type species of the Bifidobacterium genus.
