Short-term organic fertilizer substitution increases sorghum yield by improving soil physicochemical characteristics and regulating microbial community structure.

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: Chemical fertilizer reduction combined with organic fertilizer (organic fertilizer substitution) has a positive impact on crop productivity and sustainable development. However, the effects of short-term organic fertilizer substitution on microbial community structure and functions of sorghum rhizosphere soil and on sorghum yield remain unclear. Herein, this study investigated the short-term effects of organic fertilizer substitution on sorghum soil physicochemical properties, microbial community structure and enzyme activities using Metagenomic sequencing technology. Methods: The fertilization treatment included no fertilization (CK), pure chemical fertilizer N (CF), substitution of 25% chemical fertilizer N with organic N (NF25), substitution of 50% chemical fertilizer N with organic N (NF50), substitution of 75% chemical fertilizer N with organic N (NF75), and pure organic fertilizer N (NF100); soil samples were collected and analyzed in the flowering period of sorghum. Results and Discussion: The results showed that the suitable organic fertilizer substitution rate of sorghum field was 50%, and its yield was the highest among all treatments (9789.9 kg/hm
