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

Microbial communities are a crucial component of soil resources and play key roles in various biogeochemical processes. However, in the process of industrialization, the operation, transformation, relocation and other activities of chemical companies inevitably subject soil microorganisms to harsh and complex chemical pressures. Additionally, single-factor biological toxicity tests are difficult to reflect the true situation of contaminated soil environments. A multi-dimensional assessment approach- integrating non-target screening via HPLC-HRMS and 16S rDNA high-throughput sequencing technology with molecular ecological network analysis- was utilized to investigate and compare the soil microbial community structure and composition across seven distinct contaminated sites in China. Additionally, we explored the interactions among microbial species and analyzed the correlations between microorganisms and environmental factors. Phthalates, biphenyls, benzene, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), anilines, and phenols were predominant in soil samples, with PAHs serving as the typical representative pollutants across seven contaminated sites. Statistical analysis revealed that
