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

Nutrient pollution in the coastal environment has been accelerated by progressively intensifying aquaculture activities. Excessive nutrients can lead to coastal eutrophication with serious economic and ecological consequences. In this study, we studied coastal planktonic microbial community over a year to understand the aquaculture impact on coastal water quality and function. We observed increased total inorganic nitrogen concentrations in active fish farms to favor the diverse Alpha- and Gammaproteobacteria. Bacterial community alpha diversity in fish farms was positively correlated with total inorganic nitrogen, and active fish farming co-influenced the bacterial structural composition and regional beta diversity. By analyzing the nitrogen cycle-related functional compositions and pathways using PICRUSt2 prediction on inferred genomes, we identified the contribution of over 600 bacterial species to four major pathways. Enhanced nitrogen load in active fish farms was positively correlated with elevated dissimilatory nitrate reduction and denitrification pathway abundances. Fallowed fish farms were characterized by a predicted high abundance of
