A national soil organic carbon density dataset (2010-2024) in China.
Article in Scientific data, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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.
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
Soil organic carbon (SOC) is a vital component of terrestrial ecosystems and a key indicator of soil quality, agricultural potential, and climate regulation. Despite growing interest in SOC distribution across China, high-resolution and standardized datasets remain scarce. Here, we present a national soil organic carbon density (SOCD) dataset containing 23,103 samples from 7,852 soil profiles collected between 2010 and 2024. The dataset covers soil depths down to 800 cm and includes bulk density (BD) values-both measured and imputed using an ensemble modelling approach. Records are georeferenced and annotated with land cover type, climate zone, and depth information, offering wide spatial and environmental coverage across diverse Chinese landscapes, including the previously underrepresented Qinghai-Tibet Plateau. Data sources include national soil surveys, open-access repositories, and peer-reviewed literature, with all variables standardized to ensure usability.
