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

Municipal wastewater harbors diverse RNA viruses, which are responsible for many emerging and reemerging diseases in humans, animals, and plants. Although genomic sequencing can be a high-throughput approach for profiling the RNA virome in wastewater, wastewater processing methods often influence sequencing outcomes. Here, we systematically evaluated two wastewater processing methods, tangential-flow ultrafiltration (TFF) and Nanotrap Microbiome A Particles, for detecting the target RNA virus severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) via amplicon sequencing and characterizing the RNA virome using whole-transcriptome shotgun sequencing. Our results from paired comparison tests showed that the TFF and Nanotrap methods recovered similar SARS-CoV-2 variants at the lineage level (analysis of similarity [ANOSIM]
