Effects of organic amendments and crop cultivation on soil organic carbon storage, phosphorus components, and microbial respiration in stratified soils.
Article in Scientific reports, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Organic fertilization and planting interactively regulate soil carbon (C) storage, phosphorus (P) components, and microbial respiration, providing insights for optimizing fertilization regimes in farmland. This study employed a pot experiment with organic fertilization and crop planting as two factors, each at two levels, was conducted to comparatively analyze the changes in soil organic C, P fractions (total organic P/total inorganic P, Po/Pi), and microbial respiration (SIR, substrate-induced respiration) under different treatments (organic fertilizer application, planting crops or not, and their combinations). The results showed that long-term absence of organic inputs significantly reduced soluble C by 33-56% and enhanced organic P mineralization (indicated by a 27% decrease in Po/Pi ratio). Organic fertilizer application increased soluble C by 18-22% in the topsoil (0-5 cm), and this increase was greater than that observed in the absence of crops, stimulated microbial respiration (+ 30%), and led to a 3.6-fold accumulation of labile organic P. However, it exacerbated P availability stratification (40% decline in Po/Pi). Crop cultivation increased microbial biomass (+ 15-20%) and improved subsoil P speciation (50% increase in Po/Pi). Combining deep-rooted crop cultivation with surface organic fertilizer application synergistically enhances soil C sequestration.
