Novel Gene Clusters for Natural Product Synthesis Are Abundant in the Mangrove Swamp Microbiome.
Article in Applied and environmental microbiology, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
Natural microbial communities produce a diverse array of secondary metabolites with ecologically and biotechnologically relevant activities. Some of them have been used clinically as drugs, and their production pathways have been identified in a few culturable microorganisms. However, since the vast majority of microorganisms in nature have not been cultured, identifying the synthetic pathways of these metabolites and tracking their hosts remain a challenge. The microbial biosynthetic potential of mangrove swamps remains largely unknown. Here, we examined the diversity and novelty of biosynthetic gene clusters in dominant microbial populations in mangrove wetlands by mining 809 newly reconstructed draft genomes and probing the activities and products of these clusters by using metatranscriptomic and metabolomic techniques. A total of 3,740 biosynthetic gene clusters were identified from these genomes, including 1,065 polyketide and nonribosomal peptide gene clusters, 86% of which showed no similarity to known clusters in the Minimum Information about a Biosynthetic Gene Cluster (MIBiG) repository. Of these gene clusters, 59% were harbored by new species or lineages of
