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

Microcosms are used experimentally to simulate ecosystems. This technology has received increasing attention and is widely used for environmental research. This review briefly introduces the origin and development of microcosm theory, summarizes classification and applications of microcosms across decades, and describes the advantages and limitations of microcosm technology in comparison with other methods. Finally, trends in the development of microcosm models are discussed.
