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

Microbes associated with plants have proven to play a fundamental role in their growth and phytosanitary status. Microbial community architecture and function results from interactions with the host and with each other. Therefore, microbial diversity and the array of possible interspecies interactions should be considered as key elements for the development of future biocontrol and crop improvement strategies. To gain some insight into this potential, we isolated 16 rhizospheric and 16 endophytic bacteria from sugarcane and tested their ability to interact with each other. To this end, we performed 120 pairwise interaction assays within each group. Although most interactions were neutral in both rhizospheric and endophytic communities, negative interactions were more frequent between rhizospheric isolates. In contrast, positive ones predominated among endophytic isolates. After determining the interaction phenotypes between isolates, we tested their impact on plant growth promoting (PGP) traits and biocontrol against
