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.
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
Understanding water quality responses in flooded rice (Oryza sativa L.) systems is essential to reconcile high productivity with environmental protection. This study provides the first high-frequency dataset of paddy water quality dynamics in temperate South American rice systems, conducted in the Laguna Merín Basin (Uruguay-Brazil). Through detailed field-scale monitoring under real management and objective fertilization criteria, we evaluated how land use intensity influences physicochemical variables and nutrient speciation in paddy ponding water under two contrasting systems: rice-pasture rotation (RP) and continuous rice (CR). Over two seasons, a biphasic temporal pattern was observed, with elevated phosphorus (P) and nitrogen (N) concentrations during early flooding (weeks 1-7) followed by stabilization. Despite both systems following best management practices, the more intensive CR consistently showed higher total and dissolved reactive P, while N concentrations were similar between systems and largely dominated by dissolved organic forms, indicating that N dynamics were governed by internal cycling rather than fertilizer inputs. Overall, land use intensity affected water quality in a nutrient-specific manner: P was more responsive to management and enhanced mobilization under flooded conditions, whereas N appeared buffered by biogeochemical processes. The lower P enrichment observed in the RP rotation suggests that management practices associated with this system may help moderate nutrient concentrations in paddy water. This study provides field-based evidence that differences in land use intensity influence nutrient behavior in flooded rice systems, contributing insights to improve water quality protection and sustainability in temperate rice agroecosystems.
