Comparing field and lab quantitative stable isotope probing for nitrogen assimilation in soil microbes.

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
Soil microbial communities play crucial roles in nutrient cycling and can help retain nitrogen in agricultural soils. Quantitative stable isotope probing (qSIP) is a useful method for investigating taxon-specific microbial growth and utilization of specific nutrients, such as nitrogen (N). Typically, qSIP is performed in a highly controlled lab setting, so the field relevance of lab qSIP studies remains unknown. We conducted and compared tandem lab and field qSIP to quantify the assimilation of IMPORTANCE: Soil microbes are responsible for critical biogeochemical processes in natural and agricultural ecosystems. Despite their importance, the functional traits of most soil organisms remain woefully under-characterized, limiting our ability to understand how microbial populations influence the transformation of elements such as nitrogen (N) in soil. Quantitative stable isotope probing (qSIP) is a powerful tool to measure the traits of individual taxa. This method has rarely been applied in the field or with
