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

Introduction: Biodegradable mulching films (BDMs) are sustainable alternatives to polyethylene, but their degradation efficiency is strongly influenced by soil microbial composition. This study investigated the effects of Methods: Three biodegradable films (BDM1, BDM2, BDM3) and a polyethylene control were buried in soils containing native microbes, Results: All BDMs degraded significantly more than polyethylene. The monolayer BDM3 exhibited the greatest weight loss and surface damage. Soils inoculated with Discussion: These findings demonstrate that soil pH modulation and microbial activity jointly determine BDM degradation. While
