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

Intercropping can promote sustainable agricultural development and increase economic benefits by enhancing ecosystem stability, soil health, and resource use efficiency. In this study, we analyzed the effects of tomato monoculture and tomato/potato-onion intercropping on tomato root distribution and bacterial and fungal communities in tomato rhizosphere by stratified subsection excavation method, quantitative PCR, and Illumina MiSeq sequencing. The results indicated that the root system of monoculture tomato farming did not exhibit significant displacement, whereas the tomato root system in intercropping exhibited spatial adjustments to avoid competition. Intercropping increased soil pH, nitrate nitrogen (NO
