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

Di-(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP) has become an increasingly serious pollutant in soils. Microbial degradation represents a highly promising approach for its remediation. In this study, four black soils were used to simulate the natural degradation of DEHP over a 75-day microenvironmental experiment. High-throughput analysis was conducted to investigate the distribution and abundance of functional genes in soil microorganisms, aiming to explore functional microbial information. The degradation efficiency of DEHP in black soils was 76.37 %, 74.16 %, 92.21 %, and 75.35 %. The α-diversity of microbial community was positively correlated with the degradation rate. Actinobacteria and Proteobacteria exhibited sensitivity to DEHP contamination. Xanthomonaceae, Sphingomonadaceae, Hypomicrobiaceae, and Comamonadaceae contributed to the upstream metabolism of DEHP. The abundances of
