Anthropogenic, Carbon-Reinforced Soil as a Living Engineered Material.
Review in Chemical reviews, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 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
In recent years, the simple synthesis of artificial humic substances (A-HS) by alkaline hydrothermal processing of waste biomass was described. This A-HS was shown to support water and mineral binding, to change soil structure, to avoid fertilizer mineralization, and to support plant growth. Many of the observed macroscopic effects could, however, not be directly related to the minute amounts of A-HS which have been added, and an A-HS stimulated microbiome was found to be the key for understanding. In this review, we describe such anthropogenic soil in the language of the modern concept of living engineered materials and identify natural and artificial HS as the enabler to set up the interactive microbial system along the interfaces of the mineral grains. In that, old chemical concepts as surface activity, redox mediation, and pH buffering are the base of the system structure build-up and the complex self-adaptability of biological systems. The resulting chemical/biological hybrid system has the potential to address world problems as soil fertility, nutrition of a growing world population, and climate change.
