Evaluation of Minnesota Phosphorus Loss Index performance.
Article in Journal of environmental quality. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Supported by the National Phosphorus (P) Research Project led by Dr. Andrew Sharpley, Minnesota developed its statewide P-Index, the Minnesota P Loss Index (MNPI), to manage critical source areas of agricultural P. The MNPI has remained unchanged since its last revision in 2006. The overall goal of this study was to critically evaluate the MNPI to determine, in the parlance of Sharpley, if the MNPI remains "directionally and magnitudinally correct." Observed P loss from 67 site-years of annual edge-of-field data was compared with MNPI-predicted P loss. Our assessment indicates that MNPI performance is directionally correct: it correctly ranks fields that are more at risk than others. The MNPI performed better in years with high-intensity rainfall events. Averaging MNPI assessment across multiple years of data input, along with minor adjustments to the calculation algorithm, improved the robustness of MNPI estimates. Continued re-evaluation of the MNPI will ensure that this important tool for nutrient management is properly evaluating P loss potential. This study reflects Dr. Sharpley's decades-long effort to improve and revise P indices so that they reflect advances in the science and management of agricultural P.
