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

Although sedimentary zones in Lake Taihu differ in external inputs, hydrodynamic conditions, and sedimentary settings, the spatial differentiation of eukaryotic microbial communities and their assembly mechanisms remain insufficiently understood. This study analyzed sediment cores from four typical sedimentary zones of Lake Taihu: Dapu (DP), Gonghu (GH), the central lake area (HX), and Xuhu (XH). By integrating physicochemical measurements, 18S rRNA gene high-throughput sequencing, redundancy analysis, functional annotation, iCAMP, and co-occurrence network analysis, we characterized the composition, environmental associations, and assembly mechanisms of sedimentary eukaryotic microbial communities. The results showed that eukaryotic microbial communities in Lake Taihu sediments exhibited marked spatial heterogeneity, with dominant taxonomic groups including Chlorophyta, Intramacronucleata, and Diatomea. Alpha diversity was higher in the GH zone and lower in the HX zone, whereas beta diversity showed significant separation among lake zones. NH
