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

Introduction: The lotus-fish co-culture ponds (LP) is a widely applied integrated aquaculture system in China. However, research on the micro-ecology of aquaculture in lotus ponds is still insufficient. This study explored the dynamic patterns of organic matter composition, as well as algal and bacterial community structures in LP and MP. Methods: A total of six independent ponds were used in this study: three lotus ponds designated as the lotus-fish co-culture ponds group (A1, A2, A3), and the other three conventional earthen ponds serving as the fish monoculture ponds group (B1, B2, B3). Bacterial and algae community survey, environment factor survey, bacterial Biomarker selection, function prediction, and association analysis were used to analyze the effects of lotus-fish co-culture on algae, bacteria and sediment organic matter components of pond. Results: The sediments of LP had lower concentrations of total nitrogen (TN), total phosphorus (TP), total carbon (TC) and organic matter (OM), and the chlorophyll Discussion: These findings indicate that microbial communities in LP and MP follow distinct assembly patterns, and they differ in core ecological functions and environmental preferences within their respective ecosystems.
