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 recent improvements, Nanopore sequencing has become a promising method for experiments relying on amplicon sequencing. We describe a flexible workflow to generate and annotate high-quality, full-length 16S rDNA amplicons. We evaluated it for two applications, namely, (i) identification of bacterial isolates and (ii) species-level profiling of microbial communities. We assessed the identification of single bacterial isolates by sequencing, using a set of barcoded full-length 16S rRNA gene primer pairs (pair A), on 47 isolates encompassing multiple genera and compared those results with matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization-time of flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS)-based identification. Species-level community profiling was tested with two sets of barcoded full-length 16S primer pairs (A and B) and compared to the results obtained with shotgun Illumina sequencing using 27 stool samples. We developed a Nextflow pipeline to retain high-quality reads and taxonomically annotate them. We found high agreement between our workflow and MALDI-TOF data for isolate identification (positive predictive value = 0.90, Cramér's
