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

Terrestrial nematodes are important soil microorganisms that modulate biological processes in soil ecosystems. Thus, these microorganisms have strong potential as soil health bioindicators. This study aimed to investigate their distribution patterns in Moroccan olive agroecosystems and to evaluate their structural and functional dynamics shaping soil disturbance status. An extensive survey was conducted across 65 representative olive fields (orchards and nurseries combined) located in 7 distinct regions during the 2023 season. For each region, several indices were calculated to assess nematode biodiversity alongside their involvement in soil food web diagnostics. The results revealed 63 nematode genera that were detected and classified into different trophic groups: 21 bacterial feeders, 7 fungal feeders, 6 omnivores, 6 predators, and 22 plant feeders. Most soil ecosystems showed low to moderate disturbance with maturing food web conditions, whereas a few showed notable soil disturbance with bacterial and conducive properties. Structural and functional dynamics revealed that both bacterial and plant feeders effectively contributed to undisturbed and disturbed soils, respectively. This study provides novel insights into the biodiversity and dynamics of terrestrial nematodes associated with Moroccan olive agroecosystems and their contribution as effective soil health bioindicators.
