Irrigation has a higher impact on soil bacterial abundance, diversity and composition than nitrogen fertilization.

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
The aim of this study was to assess the effects of irrigation frequency and nitrogen fertilization rate on the abundance, diversity, and composition of soil bacteria in winter wheat. Irrigation, but not nitrogen fertilization, significantly affected the bacterial alpha diversity index. Among the 50 phyla obtained in these treatments, Proteobacteria, Bacteroidetes, Actinobacteria, Acidobacteria, Gemmatimonadetes, and Firmicutes were the predominant phyla. The LEfSe analysis of different treatments indicated that irrigation had a stronger effect on soil bacteria community composition than nitrogen fertilization. Moreover, the soil pH, moisture, available phosphorus (AP), and available potassium (AK) significantly correlated with the relative abundance of dominant bacteria at the phylum, genus, and operational taxonomic unit (OTU) levels. Overall, after three years of irrigation and fertilization treatments, the effect of irrigation on soil bacteria abundance, diversity, and composition of winter wheat was stronger than that of nitrogen fertilization, highlighting the importance of water availability for bacteria communities in semi-arid ecosystems. Inorganic and organic fertilizers should be applied in rotation.
