Microbiome and imputed metagenome study of crude and refined petroleum-oil-contaminated soils: Potential for hydrocarbon degradation and plant-growth promotion.
Article in Journal of biosciences, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 11 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Microbial community structure of crude petroleum oil (CP)- and refined petroleum oil (RP)-contaminated soil was investigated. The taxonomical and functional diversity of such soils can be a great source of information about microbial community and genes involved in petroleum hydrocarbon (PHC) degradation. In this study, microbial diversity of soils contaminated by RP from urban biome of Pune, India, and CP from agricultural biome of Gujarat, India, were assessed by 16S rRNA amplicon sequencing on Illumina MiSeq platform. Association between the soil microbial community and the physicochemical parameters were investigated for their potential role. In RP- and CP-contaminated soils, the microbiome analysis showed Proteobacteria as most dominant phylum followed by Actinobacteria. Interestingly, Firmicutes were most prevailing in a CP-contaminated sample while they were least prevailing in RP-contaminated soils. Soil moisture content, total organic carbon and organic nitrogen content influenced the taxa diversity in these soils. Species richness was more in RP as compared to CP soils. Further prediction of metagenome using PICRUSt revealed that the RP and CP soils contain microbial communities with excellent metabolic potential for PHC degradation. Microbial community contributing to genes essential for soil health improvement and plant growth promotion was also gauged. Our analysis showed promising results for future bioaugmentation assisted phytoremediation (BAP) strategies for treating such soils.
