Drift, dispersal limitation, and homogeneous selection as key processes shaping prokaryotic community assembly in marine sediments.

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
Marine sediment contains some of the most abundant and diverse microbial communities; however, the ecological processes shaping the benthic microbial communities at the regional scale remains poorly understood. Using a high-coverage sampling strategy, 16S rRNA gene sequencing, and ecological null models, we explored variation in the ecological processes governing benthic microbial community assembly in surface sediments across an extensive Southwest Atlantic basin. The relative importance of ecological processes varied between provinces, with drift, dispersal limitation, and homogeneous selection being the three main processes that shaped the communities. Phylogenetic bin-based analysis revealed a complex balance of assembly mechanisms, with drift dominating the majority of the bin assembly of the dominant groups such as
