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

The lack of genomic data on pathogens from wildlife severely limits our ability to track transmission patterns and trace the origins of an outbreak. There are currently millions of wildlife samples in biobanks around the world, including blood samples. Blood has traditionally been viewed as a sterile environment in healthy individuals, but recent evidence suggests that this is not the case, especially for wild animals. Our goal was to determine whether frozen plasma samples can be surveyed using 16S sequencing to provide information about potential hosts for pathogens for a more complete understanding of disease systems. We sequenced blood plasma from wild North American deer mice (
