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 Muwekma Ohlone Tribe of the San Francisco Bay Area conducted a cultural burn in oak woodland as part of cultural revitalization efforts. This low-intensity burn only moderately affected soil nematodes that infest acorn-feeding insects. The nematodes were frequently found after the burn, even within burned piles. This finding suggests that cultural burning may help to prevent outbreaks of acorn-feeding insects not only directly by killing them with heat, but also indirectly by having only minor effects on the soil nematodes. Preventing outbreaks of acorn-feeding insects increases the likelihood of more acorns being available for wildlife and cultural use.
