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

Application of nitrification inhibitors (NIs) with nitrogen (N) fertilizer is one of the most efficient ways to improve nitrogen use efficiency (NUE). To fully understand the efficiency of NIs with N fertilizer on soil nitrification, yield and NUE of maize (Zea mays L.), an outdoor pot experiment with different NIs in three soils with different pH was conducted. Five treatments were established: no fertilizer (Control); ammonium sulfate (AS); ammonium sulfate + 3, 4-dimethyl-pyrazolate phosphate (DMPP) (AD); ammonium sulfate + nitrogen protectant (N-GD) (AN); ammonium sulfate + 3, 4-dimethyl-pyrazolate phosphate + nitrogen protectant (ADN). The results showed that NIs treatments (AD, AN and ADN) significantly reduced soil nitrification in the brown and red soil, especially in AD and ADN, which decreased apparent nitrification rate by 28% - 44% (P < 0.05). All NIs treatments significantly increased yield and NUE of maize in three soils, especially ADN in the cinnamon soil and AD in the red soil were more efficiency, which significantly increased maize yield and apparent nitrogen recovery by 5.07 and 6.81 times, 4.39 and 8.16 times, respectively. No significant difference on maize yield was found in the brown soil, but AN significantly increased apparent nitrogen recovery by 70%. Given that the effect of NIs on both soil nitrification and NUE of maize, DMPP+N-GD was more efficient in the cinnamon soil, while N-GD and DMPP was the most efficiency in the brown and red soil, respectively. In addition, soil pH and soil organic matter play important role in the efficiency of NIs.
