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 decomposition of crop residue is indispensable for carbon (C) cycling in agricultural ecosystems, and nitrogen (N) application has a pronounced effect on this by regulating the C/N ratio and microbial growth strategy. This study investigated how different inorganic and organic nitrogen sources interact with soil properties to regulate straw decomposition, nutrient release, microbial community assembly, and microbial interaction networks across typical cropland soils of the North China Plain. Five treatments, i.e., no N addition, urea, calcium nitrate, yeast derivatives, and glutamate, were conducted in fluvo-aquic soil, lime concretion black soil, cinnamon soil, and yellow-cinnamon soil. We found that soil type strongly regulated straw decomposition dynamics, with cumulative decomposition rates varying greatly among the four soil types after 180 days, ranging from 55.78% to 68.75%. In particular, the lime concretion black soil exhibited the highest straw decomposition and C release rates, which harbored higher relative abundances of potential straw-decomposing taxa, including
