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

The direction and magnitude of soil organic carbon stock (SOCS) changes following land use and land cover change (LULCC) remain highly uncertain, primarily due to a lack of relevant, comprehensive global soil data. Although substantial efforts have established SOCS databases at regional, national, and sub-continental scales, an open-access global database incorporating explicit environmental drivers is urgently needed to better understand the impacts of LULCC on SOCS dynamics. Here, we present the Global Soil Organic Carbon Stock dataset after Land Use and Land Cover Change (GSOCS-LULCC). Compiled from 912 peer-reviewed articles up to December 2025, this dataset spans five major land uses (cropland, grassland, forest, plantation and savanna) yielding 8,748 harmonized records from 1,967 sites across various sampling depths. GSOCS-LULCC serves as a vital resource for evaluating the global effects of LULCC on SOCS and identifying the primary environmental factors driving carbon stock variations across different ecosystem transitions.
