Pyrolysis temperature shapes biochar-mediated soil microbial communities and carbon-nitrogen metabolism.
Article in Frontiers in microbiology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Introduction: Biochar derived from agricultural residues has potential to improve soil quality and regulate microbial communities, but its effect depends strongly on pyrolysis temperature. Methods: In this study, biochar prepared from Flammulina velutipes residue at 200 °C, 300 °C, and 400 °C was applied to cucumber seedling cultivation to evaluate its influence on soil physicochemical properties, microbial community structure, and functional metabolism. Results: Results showed that soil pH increased significantly with biochar addition, from 5.00 in the control to 6.17 at 400 °C, while soil organic matter reached the highest level in the 400 °C treatment (90.03 g·kg Discussion: Overall, these findings highlight that biochar from mushroom residue, particularly produced at 300-400 °C, improves soil fertility, regulates microbial community composition, and modulates carbon and nitrogen metabolic processes, thereby enhancing cucumber seedling growth.
