Comparative metagenomics highlights the habitat-related diversity in taxonomic composition and metabolic potential of deep-sea sediment microbiota.
Article in Heliyon, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Sediment plays a pivotal role in deep-sea ecosystems by providing habitats for a diverse range of microorganisms and facilitates the cycling processes of carbon, sulfur and nitrogen. Beyond the normal seafloor (NS), distinctive geographical features such as cold seeps (CS) and hydrothermal vent (HV) are recognized as life oases harboring highly diverse microbial communities. A global atlas of microorganisms can reveal the notable association between geological processes and microbial colonization. However, a comprehensive understanding of the systematic comparison of microbial communities in sediments across various deep-sea regions worldwide and their contributions to Earth's elemental cycles remains limited. Analyzing metagenomic data from 163 deep-sea sediment samples across 73 locations worldwide revealed that microbial communities in CS sediments exhibited the highest richness and diversity, followed by HV sediments, with NS sediments showing the lowest diversity. The NS sediments were predominantly inhabited by
