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

Peatlands are the most important global soil carbon reservoirs due to low decomposition rates. However, the influence of peatland plant litter quality and geographic environment on decomposition remains poorly understood. This article aims to explore the interactive effects of geographical origin and plant functional groups on the initial chemical characteristics and decomposition processes of peatland litter, elucidating how climate-driven biochemical legacies regulate decomposition dynamics. Plant materials were collected from three peatlands in East China spanning distinct bioclimatic regimes along a latitudinal gradient: Dajiuhu (31°29'N), Hani (42°13'N), and Mangui (52°19'N) peatlands. A 3-year decomposition experiment was conducted in Hani peatland starting in October 2014, using standardized litter bags containing nine species from three functional groups: mosses (
