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

Family Smacoviridae (order Cremevirales, class Arfiviricetes, phylum Cressdnaviricota) comprises viruses with small circular genomes of ~2300-3000 nt in length that encode at least two proteins, the rolling-circle replication associated protein (Rep) and the capsid protein (CP). Smacovirids have been discovered in fecal samples of various animals and display remarkable sequence diversity. Here, we provide an overview of the genomic properties of classified smacovirids and report on the latest taxonomy update in the family Smacoviridae. The family has been expanded by 59 new species in the genera Porprismacovirus (n = 25), Inpeasmacovirus (n = 1), Felismacovirus (n = 22), Drosmacovirus (n = 4), Dragsmacovirus (n = 2), Bovismacovirus (n = 4), and Bonzesmacovirus (n = 1) and currently includes 12 genera with 143 species officially recognized by the International Committee on Taxonomy of Viruses (ICTV).
