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

Due to their extreme water depths and unique physicochemical conditions, deep-sea ecosystems develop uncommon microbial communities, which play a vital role in biogeochemical cycling. However, the differences in the compositions and functions of the microbial communities among these different geographic structures, such as seamounts (SM), marine trenches (MT), and cold seeps (CS), are still not fully understood. In the present study, sediments were collected from SM, MT, and CS in the Southwest Pacific Ocean, and the compositions and functions of the microbial communities were investigated by using amplicon sequencing combined with in-depth metagenomics. The results revealed that significantly higher richness levels and diversities of the microbial communities were found in SM sediments, followed by CS, and the lowest richness levels and diversities were found in MT sediments.
