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

Prokaryotic systematics is one of the most progressive disciplines that has embraced technological advances over the last century. The availability and affordability of new sequencing technologies and user-friendly software have revolutionised the discovery of novel prokaryotic taxa, including the identification and nomenclature of uncultivable microorganisms. These advances have enabled scientists to resolve the structure of complex heterogenous taxon and to rectify taxonomic status of misclassified strains due to errors associated with the sensitivity and/or reproducibility of phenotypic approaches. Time- and labour-intensive experimental characterisation of strains could be replaced with determining the presence or absence of genes or operons responsible for phenotypic and chemotaxonomic properties, such as the presence of mycolic acids and menaquinones. However, the quality of genomic data must be acceptable and phylogenomic threshold values for interspecies and supraspecies delineation should be carefully considered in combination of genome-based phylogeny for a reliable and robust classification. These technological developments have empowered prokaryotic systematists to reliably identify novel taxa with an understanding of community ecology and their biosynthetic and biodegradation potentials.
