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

Evolutionary history of the host may influence the skeletal morphology of scleractinian corals. However, its effects on the assembly and function of endolithic microbiomes remain unknown. We analyzed bacterial and archaeal microbiomes from the coral skeleton by using 16S rRNA gene sequencing. We collected the samples of seven coral genera distributed among the diverse "Complex" and "Robust" clades. In this study, bacterial α-diversity was significantly higher in the Complex clade relative to the Robust clade. Archaea, on the other hand, remained stable and showed no significant differences between the two host clades, and were most abundantly Nanoarchaeota and Thermoproteota. Analysis of the network topologies showed that network structures were different between the Complex group and the Robust clade. The Robust clade formed a dense and closely knit network among bacteria and archaea. The Com-plex group formed a more modular network structure. Functional predictions further highlighted lineage-specific metabolic strategies. Enrichment was apparent in both nitrification genes (
