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

Daxing'anling Mountain, in the northeastern part of China, contains a large amount of soil organic carbon (SOC). Using data including topography, climate, and vegetation, the spatial distribution of SOC content was modeled using classical and geography-based statistics, as well as a geographically weighted kriging model. The study findings include: (1) SOC content generally ranges 40-70 g/kg, with high SOC content in the southwest and low SOC content in the southeast; (2) Results of principal component analysis suggested the normalized difference vegetation index is the best predictor of patterns in SOC; and (3) The geo-weighted regression Kriging model well reflects factors influencing spatial distribution of SOC content. This study provides important baseline information for environmental protection in the Daxing'anling Mountain area, as well as general information as to important factors that mediate this important reservoir of soil carbon.
