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

Coastal ecosystems experience some of the most active land-ocean interactions in the world, and they are characterized by high primary productivity and biological diversity in the sediment. Given the roles of microorganisms in soil biogeochemical cycling and their multifaceted influence on soil ecosystems, it is critical to understand the variations and drivers of soil microbial communities across coastal ecosystems. Here, we studied soil bacterial community dynamics at different sites (from seawater to freshwater) in the Yellow River Delta, China. Bacterial community composition and diversity over four seasons were analyzed through 16S rRNA genes. Notably, the bacterial community near the ocean had the lowest alpha-diversity when compared with the other sites. No significant differences in bacterial communities among seasons were found, indicating that seasonal variation in temperature had little influence on bacterial community in the newly formed wetlands in the Yellow River Delta. Bacterial community structure changed substantially along the salinity gradient, revealing a clear ecological replacement along the gradual transformation gradient from freshwater to seawater environment. Redundancy analysis revealed that salinity was the main driver of variations in bacterial community structure and explained 17.5% of the variability. Our study provides a better understanding of spatiotemporally determined bacterial community dynamics in coastal ecosystems.
