A Cautionary Case for Host Assignment Based on Broad Environmental bla
Article in Environmental microbiology reports, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Metagenomic analyses rely heavily on contig assembly and reference databases, which can introduce substantial bias when predicting the hosts of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) in complex environmental microbiomes. Reference-based metagenomic pipelines assign ARGs mostly to clinically important pathogens because publicly available genomic repositories are dominated by clinically relevant isolates. Motivated by this limitation, we investigated whether metagenomic inferences accurately reflect the true bacterial hosts of ARGs in a wastewater treatment plant, also integrating culture-based validation. Metagenomic screening suggested that ARGs (bla
