Insights into the Donkey Hindgut Microbiome Using Metagenome-Assembled Genomes.
Article in Animals : an open access journal from MDPI, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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
The gut microbiota plays an important role in the digestion, absorption, and metabolism of nutrients, as well as in the immunity, health, and behavior of donkeys. While reference genomes and gut microbial gene catalogs have been helpful in understanding the composition of the donkey, there is still a significant gap in sequencing and understanding the functional aspects of donkey gut microbial genomes. In this study, we analyzed metagenomic sequencing data from 26 donkeys' gut samples and successfully assembled 844 microbial metagenome-assembled genomes (MAGs). Surprisingly, 678 (80.33%) of these MAGs appear to belong to previously unidentified species. Our analysis further revealed a total of 292,980 predicted carbohydrate-active enzymes (CAZymes) and 257,893 polysaccharide utilization loci (PULs). Interestingly, these enzymes and loci displayed relatively low similarity matches in public databases. We found that the higher abundances of 36 MAGs in the cecum (such as
