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

Microbiome research using amplicon sequencing of microbial marker genes has surged over the past decade, propelled by protocols for highly multiplexed sequencing with barcoded primer constructs. Newer Illumina platforms like the NovaSeq and NextSeq series significantly outperform older sequencers in terms of reads, output, and runtime. However, these platforms are more prone to index-hopping, which limits the application of protocols designed for older platforms such as the Earth Microbiome Project protocols; hence, there is a need to adapt these established protocols. Here, we present an ultra-
