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

backgroundSoil denitrification mediated by microbial communities is a major source of nitrous oxide (N

resultsWe integrated microbial co-occurrence networks, metagenomics, and functional phenotyping to identify and characterize keystone bacterial taxa involved in denitrification across the two soil types. Structural equation modeling (SEM) and correlation analyses revealed strong associations between keystone taxa and denitrification rates and N

conclusionsOur findings demonstrate that soil-specific denitrification processes and N
