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

Bacterial community play an essential role in regulating water quality and the global biogeochemical cycle in aquatic ecosystems. However, how trophic interactions (i.e., biotic factors) regulate the diversity and composition of bacterial community in lake ecosystems remains unknown. Here, we employed DNA meta-barcoding of water samples to explore the impact of bacterivorous protozoans on the bacterial community. The results showed significant seasonal variations in the diversity and composition of both bacterial and protist communities. The composition of bacterivorous protozoans was identified as the primary predictor for the bacterial community alpha diversity in spring and summer, and for beta diversity in spring and autumn, indicating that biotic interactions play a greater role in driving the diversity of bacterial community across different seasons. Biological factors were more important than environmental factors for explaining the variations in the relative abundance of several bacterial genera (i.e., Supplementary Information: The online version contains supplementary material available at 10.1007/s42995-024-00256-8.
