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

Daqu, the starter used in Baijiu making process, is produced by spontaneous solid-state fermentation and contains numerous microbes and enzymes, significantly influencing the yield and flavour profile of Baijiu. In this study, we employed a full-length ITS metabarcoding approach using the PacBio sequencing technology to investigate the fungal diversity in 296 samples of low- (LTD), medium- (MTD) and high-temperature Daqu (HTD) collected from 10 provinces in China. In total, we identified 86 species or species groups in the fungal communities of Daqu. The fungal communities of the three types of Daqu were significantly different and the differences were also associated with their geographical origins.
