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

Rhizobacteria is an important ingredient for growth and health of medicinal herbs, and synthesis of pharmacological effective substances from it. In this study, we investigated the community structure and composition of rhizobacteria in Baphicacanthus cusia (NeeS) Bremek via 16S rRNA amplicon sequencing. We obtained an average of 3,371 and 3,730 OTUs for bulk soil and rhizosphere soil samples respectively. Beta diversity analysis suggested that the bacterial community in the rhizosphere was distinctive from that in the bulk soil, which indicates that B.cusia can specifically recruit microbes from bulk soil and host in the rhizosphere. Burkholderia was significantly enriched in the rhizosphere. Burkholderia is a potentially beneficial bacteria that has been reported to play a major role in the synthesis of indigo, which was a major effective substances in B. cusia. In addition, we found that Bacilli were depleted in the rhizosphere, which are useful for biocontrol of soil-borne diseases, and this may explain the continuous cropping obstacles in B. cusia. Our results revealed the structure and composition of bacterial diversity in B. cusia rhizosphere, and provided clues for improving the medicinal value of B. cusia in the future.
