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
Soil pollution with oil as a result of accidents at oil pipelines and oil refineries is a frequent occurrence in the south of Russia. To restore such polluted lands, it is necessary to carry out soil remediation measures. This work aimed to evaluate the use of ameliorants of various natures (biochar, sodium humate, and microbial preparation Baikal EM-1) to restore the ecological state of oil-contaminated soils with different properties (Haplic Chernozem, Haplic Arenosols, Haplic Cambisols). To assess the ecological state of soils, the following physicochemical and biological indicators were studied: residual oil content, redox potential, and medium reaction (pH). Changes in enzymatic activity were also studied, including catalase, dehydrogenases, invertase, urease, and phosphatase. The greatest decomposition of oil in Haplic Chernozem and Haplic Cambisols was provided by Baikal EM-1 (56 and 26%), and in Haplic Arenosols, this was provided by biochar (94%) and sodium humate (93%). In oil-contaminated Haplic Cambisols, the content of easily soluble salts with the addition of biochar and Baikal EM-1 increased by 83 and 58%, respectively. The introduction of biochar caused an increase in pH from 5.3 (Haplic Cambisols) to 8.2 (Haplic Arenosols). The introduction of oil-contaminated Haplic Arenosols of biochar, humate, and Baikal stimulated the activity of catalase and dehydrogenases by 52-245%. The activity of invertase was stimulated in the Haplic Chernozem after the introduction of ameliorants by 15-50%. The activity of urease was stimulated after the introduction of ameliorants into borax and Arenosol by 15-250%. The most effective ameliorant for restoring the ecological state of Haplic Cambisols after oil pollution was biochar. For Haplic Arenosols, this was sodium humate, and for Haplic Chernozem, the effectiveness of biochar and sodium humate did not differ. The most informative indicator for the remediation of Haplic Chernozem and Haplic Cambisols was the activity of dehydrogenases, and for Haplic Arenosols, this was the activity of phosphatase. The results of the study should be used to biomonitor the ecological state of oil-contaminated soils after bioremediation.
