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

Isoprene, a biogenic volatile compound emitted largely by plants, can form greenhouse gases when it reacts with atmospheric radicals. A significant amount of isoprene is absorbed into soil and can be degraded by soil microorganisms, but our understanding of the microbial biodegradation of isoprene in tropical ecosystems remains limited. This study investigated isoprene degradation by soil microbes indigenous to a tropical evergreen forest, focusing on those associated with coffee and tea plants grown as integrated crops and their genome characteristics in relation to their biodegradation capabilities. Following a 96-hour incubation with 7.2 × 10⁵ parts per billion by volume (ppbv) of isoprene, soil samples exhibited degradation levels ranging from 11.95 % to 36.54 %. From these soils, bacterial isolates belonging to the genera
