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

Marine sediments are recognized as crucial reservoirs of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs). However, the antibiotic resistome in sediments of the East China Sea, an area heavily impacted by human activities, has not been thoroughly studied. Here, we conducted a systematic investigation into the antibiotic resistome in these sediments using metagenomic analysis. Overall, we detected eighty ARG subtypes and nineteen ARG types. Beta-lactams were the dominant ARG type, and Gammaproteobacteria was the main ARG host in this study. Mobile genetic elements (MGEs) were not major drivers of ARG profiles. Although the ARG host communities significantly differed between the spring and autumn (
