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

Biodegradable polyesters are increasingly used in agricultural applications with soil biodegradation as the targeted postapplication end-of-life. Soil biodegradability is typically established in laboratory soil incubations at constant temperatures exceeding those in many field soils, highlighting the need for robust temperature-biodegradability relationships to transfer laboratory-determined biodegradation rates to field conditions. This work systematically assesses the temperature dependence of the biodegradation of three poly(3-hydroxybutyrate-
