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

The objective of this study was to investigate the effects of the microbial agent on the improvement of Pisha sandstone soil and find out an effective measure for the control of soil erosion in the Pisha sandstone area. Pisha sandstone containing the microbial agent composed of Bacillus halotolerans P75, Sinorhizobium meliloti D10, Bacillus megaterium H3, Bacillus subtilis HB01, and organic substrate was utilized to be the soil matrix for pot experiment, and then alfalfa, ryegrass, and caragana were planted, respectively. Effects of the microbial agent plus plants on the soil properties of Pisha sandstone were evaluated, and the results showed that the microbial agent plus plants significantly increased the organic matter content, alkali hydrolyzed nitrogen content, available phosphorus content, available potassium content, invertase activity, and urease activity. Meanwhile, inoculation with the microbial agent significantly promoted the growth of alfalfa, ryegrass, and caragana and also influenced the number of soil bacteria and the relative abundance of Proteobacteria, Bacteroidetes, Actinobacteria, and others. However, the effects of the microbial agent plus different plants on the soil properties and bacterial composition of Pisha sandstone were different, while the growth of different plants showed differences, suggesting that there was a different interaction between microbes and different plants in Pisha sandstone soil. In conclusion, the microbial agent plus plants could improve Pisha sandstone soil which could provide some theoretical and experimental references for soil erosion control in the Pisha sandstone area.
