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
Introduction: Bryophytes is a pioneer plant in the development of karst ecosystems and plays an important role in altering the surface environment of rocks. Studying the interaction mechanism between bryophyte and rock surface environment in karst can reveal the role of bryophyte in karst ecosystems and provide technical methods for the restoration of rocky desertification. Methods: By comparing the soil fertility, organic acids, microbial diversity, and community composition in the rock surface covered with bryophyte or without. Results: The experimental results show that when the rock surface covered with bryophyte, the overall contents of soil organic carbon (SOC) and total nitrogen (TN) was increased, whereas the contents of total phosphorus (TP) and total potassium (TK) decreased. And Discussion: Bryophytes can increase the number of microorganisms related to nitrogen fixation, carbon sequestration, phosphorus metabolism, as well as soil nitrogen, organic carbon, and malic acid content, promoting the positive succession of rock surface ecosystems.This study makes it possible to use lithophytic bryophyte to control the bare rock of rocky desertification.
