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
Soda-saline lakes are a special type of alkaline lake in which the chloride concentration is greater than the carbonate/bicarbonate concentration. Due to the high pH and a usually higher osmotic pressure than that of a normal soda lake, the microbes may need more energy to thrive in such a double-extreme environment. In this study, we systematically investigated the microbiome of the brine and sediment samples of nine artificially separated ponds (salinities from 5.5% to saturation) within two soda-saline lakes in Inner Mongolia of China, assisted by deep metagenomic sequencing. The main inorganic ions shaped the microbial community in both the brines and sediments, and the chloride concentration exhibited the most significant effect. A total of 385 metagenome-assembled genomes (MAGs) were generated, in which 38 MAGs were revealed as the abundant species in at least one of the eighteen different samples. Interestingly, these abundant species also represented the most branches of the microbiome of the soda-saline lakes at the phylum level. These abundant taxa were close relatives of microorganisms from classic soda lakes and neutral saline environments, but forming a combination of both habitats. Notably, approximately half of the abundant MAGs had the potential to drive dissimilatory sulfur cycling. These MAGs included four autotrophic
