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

Development from abandoned land to farmland after vegetation reestablishment for reclamation is an important salinization rehabilitation process in dryland ecosystems. While subsequent soil abiotic changes have been reported, few studies have focused on how reclamation affects the soil biota. Understanding the response of soil biota to reclamation is useful for evaluating the effect of agricultural management. We investigated soil physiochemical properties, the composition and structure of nematode communities, and nematode metabolic footprints in control and reclaimed farmland. The results showed that soil properties were significantly altered by reclamation. In particular, reclamation significantly increased pH, organic carbon, total nitrogen, and microbial biomass carbon. Conversely, electrical conductivity was significantly decreased. Shannon and Simpson indices were affected by reclamation. Reclamation significantly increased the Shannon index in the 10-20 cm soil layer. Reclamation significantly increased the Simpson index in the 0-10 cm soil layer, while the opposite was observed in the 10-20 cm soil layer. High basal index and fungal-based channel were found in the control. Total nematode abundance increased due to reclamation, which included fungivores, herbivores, and omnivores-predators. More nematodes could store more biomass carbon in the reclaimed farmland. Reclamation had an effect on the structure and function of soil food web, and increased the metabolic footprints of various trophic groups of nematodes. Nematode faunal analysis revealed that exogenous substances input led to the high level of communities structure, and the soil food web matured in the reclaimed farmland. The nematode communities were affected by reclamation. Furthermore, pH, EC, SOC, TN, and MBC were key driving factors affecting the nematode communities. Therefore, reclamation could effectively enhance the structure and function of soil food web through bottom-up effects in the cotton fields in Xinjiang, China.
