Depth heterogeneity of lignin-degrading microbiome and organic carbon processing in mangrove sediments.
Article in NPJ biofilms and microbiomes, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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
Mangrove ecosystems are globally recognized for their blue carbon (C) sequestration capacity. Lignocellulosic detritus constitutes the primary C input to mangrove sediments, but the microbial processes involved in its bioprocessing remain unclear. Using lignocellulosic analysis and metagenomic sequencing across five 100-cm sediment cores, we found a high proportion of lignin (95.0-97.7%) within sediments' lignocellulosic detritus, with a small fraction of lignin-degrading genes (1.24-1.98%) of lignin-degrading genes within the carbohydrate-active enzyme coding genes. Depth stratification was observed in genes and microbial communities involved in lignin depolymerization and mineralization of lignin monomer derivatives. Further microbe-centered analyses of biomass production rates and adaptive metabolism revealed diminished microbial C use efficiency potential and augmented "enzyme latch" with increasing sediment depths. These findings enhance our understanding of sedimentary organic C cycling and storage in coastal blue C ecosystems.
