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

Bioremediation effectiveness of crude oil-polluted soil can be monitored via bacterial enzyme activity. In this study, crude oil-polluted and non-polluted soil samples were used to prepare various treatment media, and petroleum hydrocarbon (PHC) degradation was assessed at different incubation periods and pH levels by measuring catalase activity. The stimulatory effects of kenaf-core combined with 95% rhamnolipid on in vitro PHC degradation were compared against bio-stimulation and bioaugmentation treatments. All treatments showed peak catalase activity on the 90th day of incubation. Among bio-augmented treatments, AZ1T6 (Azikoro-1) exhibited the highest catalase activity (20.19 mL KMnO4 g
