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

Existing genomic sequencing data can be used to study host-microbiome ecosystems, however distinguishing signals originating from truly present microbes versus contaminating species and artifacts is a substantial and often prohibitive challenge. Here we show that emerging sequencing technologies definitely capture reads from present microbes. We developed SAHMI, a computational resource to identify truly present microbial nucleic acids and filter contaminants and spurious false-positive taxonomic assignments from standard transcriptomic sequencing of mammalian tissues. In benchmark studies, SAHMI correctly identifies known microbial infections present in diverse tissues, and we validate SAHMI's enrichment for correctly classified, truly present species using multiple orthogonal computational experiments. The application of SAHMI to single-cell and spatial genomic data thus enables co-detection of somatic cells and microorganisms and joint analysis of host-microbiome ecosystems.
