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

Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is associated with intratumoral microbiota changes. However, defining the normal pancreatic microbial composition remains a challenge. Herein, we tested the hypothesis that the microbial profiling of normal pancreatic tissue from healthy organ donors (HC) could help in determining the signature of microbiota in PDAC. Matched pairs of tumor and normal tissues from PDAC patients (n = 32) and normal pancreatic tissues from HC (n = 17) were analyzed by 16S rRNA gene sequencing. Dissimilarities in all the beta metrics emerged in both normal samples and tumor samples, compared to HC (Bray-Curtis dissimilarity and Jaccard distance:
