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

Natural ecosystems are constantly damaged by natural or man-made disasters. The restoration of damaged natural ecosystems is a systematic and intricate process. Wildlife feces can facilitate seed dispersal for plants and also influence soil properties and health. Soil restoration is the basis and prerequisite for the restoration of damaged ecosystems, and wildlife defecation is a key link for plant-animal-soil material turnover and nutrient cycling. Therefore, investigation of the effects of wildlife feces on soil properties and microbiota holds great significance for ecosystem restoration. To better understand the role of wildlife feces in the recovery of damaged natural ecosystems, we continuously monitored the areas destroyed by the 2008 earthquake for 15 years with a special focus on the feces of sambar (
