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 nitrogen fertilizers sustains crop productivity but causes substantial nitrogen losses, greenhouse gas emissions, and water contamination through nitrification-driven leaching and volatilization. Although chemical nitrification inhibitors reduce these effects, concerns over persistence, toxicity, and impacts on nontarget organisms limit their sustainability. As a biological alternative, bacteriophages can selectively suppress ammonia-oxidizing bacteria (AOB) responsible for nitrification. This study examines the virulent bacteriophage ΦNF-1, the first known phage infecting soil AOB of the genus
