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

In this study, the methane yield, substance conversion rate and microbial community structure of individual components of lignocellulose, synthetic mixtures, and corn straw subjected to different pretreatments (thermal hydrolysis, chemical, biological, and combined pretreatment) during anaerobic digestion were comparatively investigated. The synthetic mixture of cellulose and hemicellulose (MCXY) exerted a positive promoting effect on biomethane production, with a synergistic effect index of 101.51%. The methane yield per volatile solids (VS) of microcrystalline cellulose (MC), xylan (XY), and MCXY reached 320.81 ± 1.85 mL/g VS, 352.70 ± 6.58 mL/g VS, and 340.60 ± 10.94 mL/g VS, respectively. Lignin did not produce biogas in anaerobic digestion (AD) system, and its presence had an inhibitory effect on the methanogenesis of cellulose and hemicellulose, especially that of hemicellulose. Notably, pretreatment significantly improved the methane production potential of corn stover. Deep eutectic solvent-pretreated corn stover (DES_CS) achieved the highest methane yield of 356.57 ± 8.50 mL/g VS, which was 55.46% higher than that of the untreated group. DES pretreatment deconstructed lignocellulosic matrix and distinctly increased DOM molecular diversity, thus providing superior substrate conditions for improving anaerobic digestion performance. Microbial community analysis revealed that DES pretreatment significantly reshaped the bacterial structure, enriching syntrophic taxa over the carbohydrate-degrading
