Metatranscriptomes of activated sludge microbiomes from saline wastewater treatment plant.
Article in Scientific data, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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 activated sludge microbiome (ASM) drives the biological wastewater treatment process in wastewater treatment plants. It has been established in the literature that the ASM is characterized by a high degree of taxonomic and metabolic diversity. However, meta-omics datasets have been derived from domestic wastewater treatment plants with little attention to saline wastewater treatment plants (SWWTP). Existing knowledge of how activated sludge microorganisms impact water quality, interrelate within habitat networks, and respond to environmental perturbations remains limited. Here we present datasets of the metatranscriptomes of SWWTP in The Netherlands, coupled with process data. The dataset represents a two-year and four-month time series of data collected from 2014 to 2017, with samples taken at approximately monthly intervals from the facultative zone in the activated sludge process of an SWWTP. In total, 32 activated sludge samples were analyzed. This dataset can be used to enhance understanding of the unique microbiome composition in SWWTPs, its dynamic responses to environmental variables, and the metabolic functions within the ASM.
