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.

Abstract
Mangrove forests are intertidal ecosystems that harbor diverse microbial communities essential for biogeochemical cycles and energy flow. This study investigated the seasonal and spatial patterns of bacterial communities in the artificially introduced mangrove sediments of the Ao River estuary using 16S rRNA gene amplicon high-throughput sequencing. Alpha diversity analyses indicated that the bacterial community diversity in the mangrove sediments of the Ao River estuary was similar to those of natural-formed mangroves, with the Shannon index ranging from 5.16 to 6.54, which was significantly higher in winter compared to other seasons. The dominant bacterial phyla included Proteobacteria (43.65%), Actinobacteria (11.55%), Desulfobacterota (11.16%), and Bacteroidetes (5.52%), while beta diversity analysis revealed substantial differences in bacterial community structure across different seasons and regions. For instance, the relative abundance of Woeseiaceae and Bacteroidota during the summer was significantly higher than that observed in other seasons. And the relative abundance of Bacillaceae in autumn and winter increased by one order of magnitude compared to spring and summer. Woeseiaceae, Desulfobulbaceae, Thermoanaerobaculaceae, and Sva1033 (family of Desulfobacterota) exhibited significantly higher relative abundance in the unvegetated area, whereas Bacillaceae and S085 (family of Chloroflexi) demonstrated greater abundance in the mangrove area. Seasonal variations in bacterial community structure are primarily attributed to changes in environmental factors, including temperature and salinity. Regional differences in bacterial community structure are primarily associated with environmental stressors, such as wave action, fluctuations in salinity, and organic matter content, which are further complicated by seasonal changes. This study is significant for understanding the microbial diversity and seasonal dynamics of estuarine mangrove wetlands, and it contributes to the assessment of mangrove wetland restoration efforts in Zhejiang Province, providing important guidance for the development of strategies to maintain the health of mangrove ecosystems in the future.
