Correlation with viruses enhances network complexity and stability of co-occurrence prokaryotes across the oceans.
Article in mSystems, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Viruses play critical roles in shaping microbial distribution, organization, and ecological functions. However, the mechanisms behind the association and structuring of microbiomes with viruses still remain largely unknown. To understand how viruses affect the assembly of marine microbiomes, the network complexity and stability of prokaryotic microbiomes with/without viruses were analyzed and compared using the IMPORTANCE: This study represents the first detailed research on the effects of viruses on the organization of marine prokaryotic microbiomes at the global scale. Biotic factors and environmental heterogeneity directly and indirectly affect microbiome and viral co-occurrence with varied strength. Network complexity and stability of marine microbial communities were enhanced by the influence of viruses. Thus, given such dynamic environmental gradients in the ocean, stable and persistent microbiome networks suggest that biotic associations with viruses play a critical role in maintaining the integrity and resilience of marine microbiomes and influencing the function of marine ecosystems.
