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

Soil methane generation mainly driven by soil prokaryotic microbes can be coupled with the degradation of petroleum hydrocarbons (PHCs); however, the relationship between prokaryotic community structure and methane production activity in soil with the potential risk of PHC contamination is seldom reported. In this study, 3 soil samples (CS-1 to CS-3) in the area nearby an exploratory gas well and 5 soil samples (DC-1 to DC-5) in a drill cutting dump area were obtained from the Fuling shale gas field (Chongqing City, China). Then, the prokaryotic community structure was examined by Illumina Miseq sequencing, and the linkage between soil methane production rate (MPR) and prokaryotic community composition was analyzed. The results indicated that 2 samples (DC-4 and DC-5) collected from the drill cutting dump area had significantly higher MPR than the other samples, and a significant and positive relationship (r = 0.44, P < 0.05) was found between soil MPR and soil organic matter (OM) content. The prokaryotic community composition in the sample (DC-5) with the highest MPR was different from those in the other samples, and soil OM and MPR were the major factors significantly correlated with the prokaryotic community structure in this soil. The samples (DC-4 and DC-5) with higher MPR had a higher relative abundance of Archaea and different archaeal community structures from the other samples, and the MPR was the sole factor significantly correlated with the archaeal genus composition in this soil. Therefore, both the prokaryotic and archaeal community structures are essential in the determination of soil MPR, and the bacterial genus of Saccharibacteria and the archaeal genus of Methanolobus might be the key contributors for methane generation in this soil from the shale gas field.
