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.
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 legume host and soil environment play a major role in establishing effective symbiosis with diverse rhizobia for plant growth promotion and nodule formation. The aim of this study was to assess the morpho-physiology, distribution and phylogenetic position of rhizobia nodulating cowpea from South Africa and Mozambique. The results showed that the isolates were highly diverse in their appearance on yeast mannitol agar plates. The isolates tested also showed an ability to produce IAA at concentrations ranging from 0.64 to 56.46 μg.ml-1 and to solubilise phosphorus at levels from 0 to 3.55 index. Canonical correspondence analysis showed that soil pH and mineral nutrients significantly influenced bradyrhizobial distribution. Analysis of BOX-PCR placed the isolates in eight major clusters with 0.01 to 1.00 similarity coefficient which resulted in 45 unique BOX-types. Phylogenetic analyses based on 16S rRNA, atpD, glnII, gyrB and recA gene sequences showed distinct novel evolutionary lineages within the genus Bradyrhizobium, with some of them being closely related to Bradyrhizobium kavangense, B. subterraneum and B. pachyrhizi. Furthermore, symbiotic gene phylogenies suggested that the isolates' sym loci probably relates to the isolates' geographical origin. The results indicated that geographical origin did affect the isolates' phylogenetic placement and could be the basis for allopatric speciation.
