Biosynthetic gene clusters from uncultivated soil bacteria of the Atacama Desert.
Article in mSphere, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 12 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
Soil microorganisms mediate several biological processes through the secretion of natural products synthesized in specialized metabolic pathways, yet functional characterization in ecological contexts remains challenging. Using culture-independent metagenomic analyses of microbial DNA derived directly from soil samples, we examined the potential of biosynthetic gene clusters (BGCs) from six bacterial communities distributed along an altitudinal gradient of the Andes Mountains in the Atacama Desert. We mined 38 metagenome-assembled genomes (MAGs) and identified 168 BGCs. Results indicated that most predicted BGCs were classified as non-ribosomal-peptides (NRP), post-translational modified peptides (RiPP), and terpenes, which were mainly identified in genomes of species from
