Metagenomic insights into viral dynamics and funcation in Baijiu.

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
Baijiu fermentation represents a sophisticated microbial-driven biochemical process mediated by complex microbial consortium. Despite extensive characterization of bacterial and fungal roles in fermentation systems, the virus remains a critical knowledge gap. In this study,we employed metagenomics to profile the dynamics of viral community in fermented grains across five stages (day 0, 5, 10, 20 and 30) of a Baijiu fermentation. The metagenomics revealed 101 viral families, dominated by Metaviridae, Parvoviridae, Aliceevansviridae, Herelleviridae, Geminiviridae, Iridoviridae, and Genomoviridae, and lactic acid bacteria was identified as primary phage hosts. The results revealed that ssRNA viruses and ssDNA viruses were more abundant during 0-5 days, dsDNA viruses became dominant during 10-30 days. Multivariate analysis indicated that the viral community dynamics during the fermentation were primarily governed by microbes in succession, environmental factors (temperature,pH, moisture and glucose) and metabolites (lactic acid, acetate and ethanol) in the biosystem. Notably, predicting phages exhibited strong positive correlations with their respective hosts (
