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

Biological soil crusts (BSCs) are an integration of external photoautotrophs and internal heterotrophic communities. Sand burial is a ubiquitous disturbance that affects the biodiversity and ecological function of BSCs, but little is known about the influence of sand burial on microbial communities in arid sandy deserts. Here, based on a long-term field experiment and utilizing high-throughput sequencing, we assessed the influence of sand burial on bacterial and fungal communities inhabiting two typical successional stages of BSCs (cyanobacterial crusts for early successional stage and mixed crusts for late successional stage) at the three-sand buried depth (0, 0.5, and 10 mm) in the Tengger Desert, Northern China. We found that the diversity, abundance, and composition of the bacterial and fungal communities were all altered by the sand burial treatment. Different indicator taxa were identified in unburied and buried (shallow and deep) BSCs. Changes in soil properties caused by sand burial have been suggested as a possible cause of changes in the bacterial and fungal community composition in BSCs.
