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

Complete ammonia oxidizers (comammox), oxidizing ammonia to nitrate directly, have been found to exist widely in multiple environments, but their distribution patterns are still under-explored in Antarctic environments. For the first time, the sediments were collected from West Antarctic lakes to investigate distribution patterns and community structure for comammox, ammonia oxidizing archaea (AOA) and bacteria (AOB), and nitrite-oxidizing bacteria (NOB), as well as the associations between ammonia oxidizers and antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs). Comammox clade B and AOB were dominant ammonia oxidizers, with the abundances of (1.62 ± 0.10) × 10
