Analysis of microbiome diversity in coprolites from Caral, Peru.
Article in Bioinformation, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
We analyzed human coprolites from the Sacred City of Caral, the oldest civilization in America (3000- and 1800-years BC). Our objective was to know the microbial diversity of the Caral Civilization through the use of a mobile ancient laboratory. DNA extraction conducted in a mobile laboratory placed near the collection site to reduce exposure of samples to contaminants and favor a rapid molecular processing. Using 16S rRNA and ITS 1 amplicon sequencing, we have elaborated the first list of the microbiomes of Caral, based on the bacterial and fungal community fingerprints detected in the coprolites recovered in six sectors of that ancient urban center. Among the most abundant sequences were those associated with Firmicutes for bacteria, Ascomycota and Basidiomycota for fungi. Bacillus was the most abundant bacterial genera in all samples analyzed, compromising up to 24.81% of the total bacterial abundance; while Aspergillus (11.43%) was the most abundant genera among fungal communities.
