Methane Generation from Anthracite by Fungi and Methanogen Mixed Flora Enriched from Produced Water Associated with the Qinshui Basin in China.
Article in ACS omega, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
Biogenic coalbed methane (CBM) is generally believed to be formed by anaerobic bacteria and methanogens, while a few studies took fungi into account. Here, the microflora consisting of fungi and methanogens was enriched from the produced water associated with the Qinshui Basin using anthracite as the only carbon source. The maximum methane yield of 231 μmol/g coal was obtained after 22 days of cultivation under the optimum temperature of 35 °C, pH of 8, salinity of 0-2%, particle size of 0.075-0.150 mm, and the solid-liquid ratio of 1:30. It could remain active even after exposure to air for 24 h. Miseq results showed that the archaea were mainly composed of
