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

Background: Excessive chemical fertilizer application has become a core bottleneck restricting the green and sustainable cultivation of Results: Using metagenomic sequencing, we investigated the effects of six fertilization regimes [100% organic fertilizer (OF100), 100% chemical fertilizer (OF0), and organic-inorganic combinations (OF25, OF50, OF75)] on the genetic potential of soil C and N cycling, as well as soil properties and licorice growth traits in bulk and rhizosphere soils of licorice. Organic substitution significantly altered the abundance of C and N cycling-related functional genes: OF100 significantly increased the abundance of genes associated with methane oxidation ( Conclusion: Rational organic-inorganic fertilization effectively regulates soil microbial functional genes related to C and N cycling, optimizes soil nutrient cycling potential, reduces nutrient loss risk, and enhances nutrient supply efficiency for licorice growth. These findings provide a scientific basis for fertilizer management optimization and sustainable cultivation of licorice.
