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

Microbially induced calcite precipitation (MICP) is an emerging ground improvement technique that uses microbes to induce cementation between soil particles. To date, the majority of research has focused on exploring MICP with silica-rich sands; however, the present study investigates the process and efficacy of MICP in a carbonate-rich natural soil, and a comparison is made with benchmark silica-rich sands. MICP column experiments were performed with a range of treatment formulations to optimize and understand the MICP process in carbonate-rich soil. Performance was quantified using chemical (pH, urea, and ammonium concentrations) and physical measurements (TGA and LOI tests). Micro-scale characterization of the cemented soils was performed with XRD, SEM, and EDS, while shear-wave velocity (V
