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

While nutrient loads from anthropogenic sources upset aquatic ecosystem balance, Wolffia arrhiza (duckweed) has capacity to purge nutrient-rich water if continuously harvested. The nutrients accumulated in biomass have potential as soil fertility amendments. The objective of this study was to determine changes in release of nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P), and the fate of P in soils after duckweed biomass amendment. An incubation experiment was conducted at 25 °C using three soils amended with proportions equivalent to 501, 1002 and 1503 mg N kg
