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

Loess Plateau is the region with the most concentrated loess distribution and the deepest loess soil layer in the world, and it is facing serious problems of soil erosion and ecological degradation. The nano carbon modification of soil surface properties is a novel strategy for soil improvement and enhancing the soil's capacity to sequester carbon, which has been extensively researched. However, the mechanisms underlying the influence of carbon surface structure on the efficacy of loess soil remediation remain unclear. Herein, graphene oxide (GO) with a unique two-dimensional structure and adjustable surface properties was optimized as a model carbon filler to investigate the modification effect on loess. As a result, the addition amount of 0.03% GO significantly reduced the disintegration amount of loess, but, if inhibited for a long time, the disintegration effect would weaken. The highly reduced GO can delay the loess disintegration rate due to its enhanced hydrophobicity, but the inhibitory effect fails over a long period of time. After adjusting the reduce degree with a 50% SA (sodium ascorbate), the water-holding capacity of the modified soil in the high suction range is enhanced. This study reveals the synergistic mechanism of the sheet structure and surface properties of GO on the water stability of loess, providing a reference for the prevention and control of soil erosion and ecological restoration in the Loess Plateau.
