Longitudinal Investigation of Enteric Virome Signatures from Parental-Generation to Offspring Pigs.
Article in Microbiology spectrum, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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
To date, studies on the swine gut microbiome have focused almost exclusively on bacteria. Despite recent advances in the understanding of the swine gut bacteriome at different growth stages, a comprehensive longitudinal study of the lifetime dynamics of the swine gut virome is lacking. Here, we used metagenomic sequencing combined with bioinformatic analysis techniques to characterize the gut viromes of parental-generation and offspring pigs at different biological classification levels. We collected 54 fecal samples from 36 parental-generation pigs (18 breeding boars [Duroc] and 18 pregnant/lactating sows [Landrace]) and 108 fecal samples from 18 offspring pigs during the lactation (day 3), nursery (days 26, 35, and 49), growing (day 120), and finishing (day 180) stages. Alpha diversity, including community richness (richness index) and diversity (Shannon index), showed an overall increasing trend in offspring pigs. Distinct shifts (beta diversity) in the microbiome structure along different growth stages were observed. The linear discriminant analysis effect size (LEfSe) algorithm revealed 53 viral genus that are stage specific. Host prediction results showed that enteric viruses are probably correlated with carbohydrate decomposition. We identified abundant auxiliary carbohydrate-active enzyme (CAZyme) genes from enteric viruses, most of which are glycoside hydrolase genes and participate in the biolysis of complex polysaccharides.
