Diversity and distribution of a prevalent Microviridae group across the global oceans.
Article in Communications biology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
Small single-stranded DNA phages of the Microviridae family are diverse and prevalent in oceans. Our understanding of Microviridae phages that infect the ecologically important marine Roseobacter is currently limited, comprising few isolates. Here, we report six roseophages that infect Roseobacter RCA strains. Genomic and phylogenetic analyses revealed that they were new members of the previously identified subfamily Occultatumvirinae. Additionally, 232 marine uncultivated virus genomes (UViGs) affiliated to Occultatumvirinae were obtained from environmental genome datasets. Phylogenomic analysis revealed that marine Occultatumvirinae phages could be further grouped into 11 subgroups. Moreover, meta-omics based read-mapping analysis showed that Occultatumvirinae phages were globally distributed, with two low G + C subgroups showing the most prevalent distribution. Furthermore, one phage in subgroup 2 was found to be extremely ubiquitous. Overall, this study expands our understanding of the diversity and ecology of the Occultatumvirinae microviruses in the ocean and highlights their ecological impacts.
