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 Maijishan and Mogao Grottoes, both UNESCO World Heritage Sites along the Silk Road, are increasingly threatened by microbial biodeterioration. To characterize bacterial communities of different microbial damages on wall paintings and identify environmental drivers, we combined high-throughput DNA/RNA sequencing with microenvironmental monitoring and conducted a cross-site comparison. At Maijishan, bacterial communities associated with black and white mycelia showed no significant compositional differences within the same cave but varied markedly between caves, indicating site-specific community assembly. Actinobacteria (>50%), particularly
