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

Introduction: Maize ( Methods: In this study, a field experiment was conducted, and the bacterial and fungal communities of maize rhizosphere soils in maize-soybean intercropping systems treated with different N fertilization rates were investigated using Illumina NovaSeq sequencing. Maize growth traits, soil physicochemical properties and soil enzyme activities were also examined. Results and discussion: We found that intercropping and N fertilizer treatments strongly influenced soil microbial diversity, structure and function. The PLSPM (partial least squares path modeling) confirmed that soil nutrients directly positively affected maize biomass and that intercropping practices indirectly positively affected maize biomass via soil nutrients, especially NH
