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

Phosphorus is a critical nutrient affecting primary productivity across all ecosystems. Many regions worldwide are limited or co-limited by phosphorus availability, which can be alleviated through atmospheric deposition. Dust is known to be a key external source of phosphorus in ecosystems, assumed to be in the form of various insoluble inorganic minerals. We show that this view is largely incomplete and here we present conclusive evidence, that organic phosphorus as diesters, primarily associated with biological materials. Phosphate diesters significantly correlated with soil bacteria found in dust, implying a direct link with microbial soil communities, without excluding the eukaryotic cells. Phosphate diesters in dust, along with abundant alkaline phosphatase, may contribute 70% to daily primary productivity in the eastern Mediterranean, highlighting the potential of organic phosphorus substrates present in dust as airborne microorganisms to impact the biogeochemistry of oligotrophic environments via atmospheric deposition.
