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

The present study was undertaken to investigate the diversity of mangrove-associated bacterial genera at Manakudy estuary, Southwest coast of India. The root and rhizosphere sediments of both mangrove and their associated plants were collected from chosen area. Results inferred that the maximum nutrients, THB density, and diversity indices were recorded in rhizosphere and root sample of Avicennia officinalis. Altogether, 258 bacterial strains were isolated from the chosen mangrove samples and screened for nitrogen fixing and phosphate solubilizing ability. Screened result inferred that, 36.43 % isolates had nitrogen fixing and 29.45 % isolates had phosphate solubilizing ability. Here, the genus Bacillus spp. (21.71 %) was the most dominant genera. The bacterial diversity indices, i.e., univariate analysis showed remarkable variation between the chosen samples; however, maximum diversity indices was registered by rhizosphere and root sample of A. officinalis. The 95 % confidence interval and ellipse showed that samples were well mendacious within AvTD and VarTD. Likewise, the multivariate analysis like similarity percentage was good discriminator from 16.64 to 100 % by Bray-Curtis dissimilarity. The prinicipal component analysis (PCA) showed marked variation between the tested bacterial communities. Cluster analysis and non-metric multi-dimensional scaling (MDS) were grouped by Bray-Curtis similarity index which strongly evidence that the rhizosphere and root samples of A. officinalis were highly diversified in the study area.
