Effects of Spent Mushroom Substrate Treated with Plant Growth-Promoting Rhizobacteria on Blueberry Growth and Soil Quality.
Article in Microorganisms, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Spent mushroom substrate (SMS) is the residual biomass generated after harvesting the fruitbodies of edible fungi. It is produced in large quantities and contains abundant nutrients. Plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) are a group of plant-associated microorganisms known for their ability to enhance plant growth, improve disease resistance, and boost soil quality. In this study, three PGPR strains with the highest plant growth-promoting potential were selected based on their ability to grow effectively in SMS extract. The SMS substrates were mixed with PGPR solutions and sterile water to establish a batch culture system. The mixture was initially incubated at 28 °C for 3 days, followed by continuous aerobic decomposition in a ventilated environment for 180 days. Based on the quality analysis of the PGPR-treated SMS, the 54-day treatment for transplanting blueberry seedlings was selected. The PGPR-treated substrates showed significantly higher TN, HN, and AP than controls (
