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

Background: In order to ensure food security, China is actively carrying out conversion of nongrain cultivated land to paddy field. Therefore, it is very necessary to investigate the influence of this conversion on soil health, which has been well known to play an important role in crop growth. Methods: A combined analysis of soil physicochemical properties, bacterial community structure, and metabolite was conducted on 72 soil samples, which were collected in this study from the converted paddy fields and the corresponding non-grain cultivated lands including loquat garden, mulberry field, blueberry garden, vineyard, bamboo garden and nursery stock base. Results: In this study, conversion of non-grain cultivated land to paddy field significantly influenced physicochemical properties, bacterial community structure, and metabolite of root-zone soil with 8.08-43.85%, 8.90-64.14%, 24.98-91.97%, 38.74-92.52%, and 5.12-32.99% reduction in soil organic matter content (SOM), alkaline hydrolysis nitrogen (AHN), available phosphorus (AP), available potassium (AK), and microbial biomass carbon (MBC), respectively; 0.81-3.08 fold, 1.26-21.50 fold, and 4.29-14.54 fold increase in relative abundance (RAs) of Chloroflexi, Desulfobacterota, and Nitrospirota, respectively; and 2,204 differentially expressed metabolite (DEMs) belonging to amino acids and derivatives, benzene and substituted derivatives, flavonoids, lipids, organic acids, terpenoids. Furthermore, correlation analysis indicated that these DEMs were significantly correlated with some specific bacteria, thereby helping in coordinating the root-zone soil community during conversion, while these bacteria were also correlated with soil properties. Conclusion: Overall, this study highlights the importance of bacterial communities during conversion of non-grain cultivated land to paddy field, which provided a scientific basis and supporting evidence for the renovation of non-grain cultivated land.
