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 role of endophytic bacteria in the interaction between medicinal plants and microorganisms, secondary metabolite accumulation, plant nutrient changes, as well as their interactions with microbial communities, needs to be investigated in medicinal plants. In this study, 16S rRNA genes of endophytic bacterial communities in the root systems of three medicinal licorice species at different root depths (0-20, 20-40, and 40-60 cm) were sequenced using high-throughput sequencing technology, and their relationships with plant and soil factors were investigated. Our study indicated that the influence of
