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

Denitrification leads to nitrogen loss from marine oxygen minimum zones. The complete metabolic pathway for denitrification reduces nitrate to dinitrogen gas in four sequential steps. Many facultatively anaerobic bacteria are capable of the initial step of nitrate reduction to nitrite. Far fewer contribute to nitrogen loss by reducing nitrite to nitric oxide, nitrous oxide or dinitrogen gas. We sequenced the genomes of 24 bacteria isolated from low-oxygen waters (23 µM) in the northern Benguela Upwelling System (nBUS) to identify species with the genetic potential for denitrification. Most isolates have the genetic potential for partial denitrification, including ten SAR11 strains with a genomic region that codes for a copper-containing nitrite reductase (NirK) and a high-affinity cbb3-type cytochrome c oxidase. Evidence that nBUS SAR11 have the potential to respire nitrite in low-dissolved-oxygen waters suggests that they could have a more direct role in marine nitrogen loss.
