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

Mondia whitei (Hook.f.) Skeels is an essential medicinal plant in African societies. However, little is known about the plant's metabolome and its microbiota. Here, we examine the root endosphere and rhizosphere from five locations in Uganda using high-throughput amplicon sequencing, qPCR and multifactorial modelling. Root metabolite profiles obtained with GC/LC-MS were comprehensively catalogued through a deep literature survey using 516 sources. Plant roots were inhabited by microbiota ranging between 50 and 500 ASVs, also with an average microbial abundance of 10
