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

The decomposition of organic matter is essential for sustaining the health of freshwater ecosystems by enabling nutrient recycling, sustaining food webs, and shaping habitat conditions, which collectively enhance ecosystem resilience and productivity. Bacteria and fungi play a crucial role in this process by breaking down coarse particulate organic matter (CPOM), such as leaf litter, into nutrients available for other organisms. However, the specific contribution of bacteria and their functional interactions with fungi in freshwater sediments have yet to be thoroughly explored. In the following study, we enriched organic matter through the addition of alder (
