Soil depth exerts greater effect on bacterial community than spatial structure in Longmenshan fault zone.

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
The diversity patterns and drivers of soil microbial communities across spatial distances have been extensively investigated over the recent years. However, whether microbial communities in surface and subsurface soils showed an identical spatial distribution pattern at a small regional scale has not been fully confirmed. For this, we investigated the linkage between soil water content (SWC), pH as well as nutrient contents and soil bacterial diversity and communities in different soil layers in the Longmenshan fault zone in Sichuan Province, China. Our investigation indicated that surface soil bacterial communities were positively correlated with SWC and pH ( IMPORTANCE: Soil water content served as the main driver of changes in surface soil bacterial diversity and community. Spatial structure had a greater influence on surface soil bacterial communities and diversity. Soil depth had a significantly higher effect on soil bacterial community composition and network properties than site. Our results may provide insights into the impact of microbial functions on biodiversity and ecosystem service functions.
