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

We report a viral metagenomic analysis of fecal samples from Bradypus crinitus (Pilosa: Bradypodidae), a recently described sloth species that occurs in the Atlantic Forest of Espírito Santo and Rio de Janeiro states, Southeast Brazil. Through Illumina sequencing, we generated a total of 2,065,344 raw reads, of which 945,386 reads (45.77%) passed the quality and size filter. The highest proportion of them was assigned to Eukarya, followed by Bacteria and only a small proportion to Virus. However, we identified 24 viral families using distinct taxonomic assignment tools, including phages and vertebrate viruses, such as retroviruses and papillomaviruses. Also, we identified four bacterial genus already associated with disease in sloths. Our study sheds light on the microbiome of a previously unexplored species, further contributing to the comprehension of metagenomic global diversity.
