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

Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) are obligate plant root symbionts delivering a range of benefits to the host plant such as improved nutrient acquisition and resistance to pathogens and abiotic stress. However, whether they can enhance the function of plant root systems damaged due to subsidence caused by excessive coal mining has not been well explored. In the present study, we investigated the effects of AMF using Funneliformis mosseae (FM) as the test fungus on maize (Zea mays L.) growth and hormone levels under different levels of root damage stress by simulating mining subsidence. The results show that plants treated with FM had more shoots, roots, mycorrhizal colonization and higher hyphal density than those without FM under the same simulated mining-induced subsidence conditions. In addition, plants treated with FM also possessed higher N, P, K, Ca, and Mg contents in the shoots and the roots and higher indole-3-acetic acid, gibberellin (GA), and cytokinin (CTK) contents in the roots, indicating that the mycorrhizal association promoted plant biomass and nutrient uptake. FM treatment was no longer beneficial when root damage due to mining-induced subsidence affected more than half of the roots. Soil SOC, AK, and TG were identified as key factors affecting GA, CTK, IAA, and ABA, and AMF can alter plant hormones directly via the hyphae and indirectly by altering soil physicochemical properties under root damage stress. Overall, our results provide baseline data for assessing the biological reclamation effects of AMF on coal mining-induced subsidence.
