Changes in the bacterial communities in chromium-contaminated soils.

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
Introduction: Hexavalent chromium or Cr(VI) is essential to various industries, such as leather manufacturing and stainless steel production. Given that inevitable leakage from industries pollutes the soil and thereby affects the soil environment. Microbial communities could improve the quality of the soil. Abundant bacterial communities would significantly enhance the soil richness and resist external pressure, benefiting agriculture. But the pollution of heavy metal broke the balance and decrease the abundance of bacterial communities, which weak the self-adjust ability of soil. This study aimed to explore changes in the diversity of soil bacterial communities and to identify the influences of soil bacterial communities on enzymes in soil polluted by Cr(VI). Methods: The target soils were sampled quickly and aseptically. Their chromium content was detected through inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry, and bacterial microbiome communities were explored through MiSeq high-throughput sequencing. Then, the content of nitrite reductase and catalases were investigated through enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Results: Chromium content in polluted soils was higher than that in the control soils at all depths. Sobs, Chao1, Ace, and Shannon diversity estimators in the control were higher, whereas Simpson's diversity estimators in the control soils were lower than those of contaminated samples at all depths. Contaminants affected the composition of the bacterial community. The soil microbial species were relatively single and inhomogeneous in the polluted soils. The bacterial phyla in polluted and controlled soils include Discussion: The results of these observations provide insights into the ecotoxicological effects of Cr(VI) exposure to soil microorganisms. To sum up these results are critical for evaluating the stabilized state of microbial community structures, contributing to the assessment of the potential risk of metal accumulation in soils.
