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

Tree establishment via natural colonisation is increasing globally, due to treeline expansion under climate change, and changing land management practices, such as reduced grazing pressure, land abandonment, and initiatives to increase tree cover such as restoration and rewilding. Natural colonisation of organo-mineral soils at high densities is associated with altered soil physicochemical properties, with consequences for ecosystem services such as soil carbon stocks, biodiversity, and hydrology. But whether sparse natural colonisation of organo-mineral soils has similar effects on soil physicochemical properties to dense natural colonisation is not known. To investigate the effects of sparse natural colonisation on organo-mineral soils, we measured soil physicochemical properties at increasing distances up to 8 metres from single, native (
