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

Understanding the interplay between soil properties and microbial communities is crucial for elucidating the ecological mechanisms driving Chinese cordyceps (CC) formation. However, few studies have explored the dynamic changes in soil properties and microbial communities at different stages of CC formation. This study presents a comprehensive investigation of soil properties and bacterial communities across the developmental stages of CC. Our results showed that the mummified host larvae-rearing soil (MS) stage exhibited the most pronounced fluctuations in critical soil parameters, including soil pH, organic matter, total phosphorus, available phosphorus, and potassium levels, suggesting heightened nutrient mobilization to support CC growth. Enzyme activities analysis further revealed that CC growth notably altered the activities of acid phosphatase and dehydrogenase in the soil during the MS stage. 16S rRNA high-throughput sequencing analysis revealed that as CC developed, both bacterial richness and the abundance of specific bacterial genera, particularly
