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

The intensive use of soil and the increased consumption of chemical fertilizers have risen over the years, causing soil degradation and impacting human health. The application of the fungus Trichoderma spp. has expanded exponentially and has been used to enhance soil fortification and detoxification of both soil and wastewater. Additionally, it has been applied in agricultural systems as a biocontrol agent against pathogens, to stimulate plant growth, and as a biological fertilizer to improve soil fertility. In this study, three Trichoderma strains (T. harzianum MMBF 58/09, T. asperellum URM 6997/160821, and T. harzianum IB 19/17) were cultivated using a culture medium designed through Plackett-Burman statistical design, followed by the characterization of the microorganisms to increase enzyme production, siderophore synthesis, and indole-3-acetic acid production. Significant enzymatic activity was observed, including chitinase (0.022 and 0.004 U·mL
