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

Background: Chaohu Lake (CL) is one of the most polluted areas in China due to its high content of antibiotics. However, the distribution and influencing factors of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) in this lake are still controversial. Methods: To solve this problem, we used metagenomic sequencing to investigate the distribution and in-fluencing factors of ARGs in CL. Results: Our findings revealed the existence of nine kinds of ARGs, including 45 specific genes. The most abundant types were multidrug, bacitracin, polymyxin, macrolide lincosamide streptogramin, and aminoglycoside. Multiple microorganisms were undeniable ARG reservoirs, although they were not dominant species in the microbiota. Our results also showed that both the microbiota and physiochemical factors played important roles in shaping the distributions of ARGs in CL. Specifically, the levels of PO4-P (0.5927) and total phosphorus (0.4971) had a greater impact than total nitrogen (0.0515), NO Conclusions: These findings provide valuable insights into the distribution and influencing factors of ARGs in lakes.
