Mesostigmata mite assemblages in stands developed on former agricultural land.
Article in Experimental & applied acarology, 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
Afforestation of post-agricultural land plays a crucial role in restoring forest soil properties and initiating secondary succession processes driven by soil biota. In this study, we compared Mesostigmata communities in even-aged (21 y./o.) stands of Alnus glutinosa, Betula pendula, Picea abies, Pinus sylvestris, and Tilia cordata established on a former agricultural lands, and adjacent fallow field as a reference habitat, located near the Żelazny Most tailings storage facility (Lubin Forest District, Poland). Soil sampling was conducted on 18 study sites (5 tree species and fallow field × 3 plots) using steel corer (0-15 cm depth), consisting of 90 samples (5 samples from each plot). In total, 592 mesostigmatid mites representing 39 taxa and 15 families were recorded. Community structure differed among habitats, with Alnus glutinosa supporting the highest abundance and diversity, while Tilia cordata exhibited the lowest values. Deciduous stands generally hosted richer and more abundant assemblages than coniferous stands and the fallow field. The occurrence of both widespread generalists and highly specialized species highlights clear habitat differentiation and varying degrees of ecological specialization, reflecting differences in soil restoration processes among tree species.
