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.

Abstract
Urban wetlands play a crucial role in maintaining ecological balance, carbon sequestration, and water purification. Sediments are key carriers for wetlands to store elements such as carbon, nitrogen, and phosphorus in the aquatic environment. This study analyzed different sediment layers of seven wetlands in Yangzhou, aiming to explore the relationship between physicochemical factors and microbial communities in wetland sediments, as well as to predict the functions of microbial communities. Functional prediction of microbial communities was conducted based on amplicon sequencing analysis, and the neutral community model was used to determine the formation and evolution process of microbial communities. The results showed that in three wetlands, namely Zhuyu Bay (ZYW), Luyang Lake (LYH), and Runyang Wetland (RYSD), the contents of carbon components (total carbon, total soluble carbon, microbial biomass carbon) in the 0-20 cm sediment layer were higher, while the carbon component contents in Baoying Lake (BYH) showed the opposite trend. Among them, the contents of total nitrogen, alkali-hydrolyzable nitrogen, total phosphorus, available phosphorus, total potassium, and available potassium in the 0-20 cm sediment layer of Runyang Wetland (RYSD) were significantly the highest. This indicates that in Runyang Wetland (RYSD), the 0-20 cm layer has more abundant carbon components and mineral nutrients compared to the 20-40 cm layer. Among the seven wetlands, it was found that the content of total potassium was all greater than 10 g/kg, which was much higher than the contents of total phosphorus and total nitrogen. Analysis of microbial communities revealed that the dominant archaeal phyla were Thaumarchaeota and Euryarchaeota, and the dominant bacterial phyla were Proteobacteria and Acidobacteria. The distribution of functional genes was mainly concentrated in Zhuyu Bay (ZYW) and Luyang Lake (LYH). Zhuyu Bay Wetland (ZYW) had potential advantages in light utilization function, and Luyang Lake (LYH) had potential advantages in carbon and nitrogen cycle functions. The assembly process of the archaeal community was mainly affected by stochastic processes, while the bacterial community was mainly affected by deterministic processes. However, water content, total phosphorus, and available potassium all had strong correlations with both archaeal and bacterial communities. The research results preliminarily reveal the connections between the physicochemical properties of sediments, microbial communities, and their potential functions in Yangzhou urban wetlands, providing an important scientific basis for the protection and management of wetland ecosystems.
