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: Drought stress poses a significant threat to global rice productivity, jeopardizing crop yield and food security, particularly in water-limited agroecosystems. The application of plant-associated microbes to enhance drought resilience in crops has gained considerable attention in recent years. However, systematic investigation on changes in rice rhizosphere microbial diversity under drought stress remains limited. This study aimed to identify drought-responsive bacterial taxa and evaluate selected rice rhizosphere bacteria for their potential to enhance drought tolerance in rice. Methods: A meta-analysis of 16S rRNA amplicon sequencing datasets from rice drought-associated studies was conducted to identify drought-responsive bacterial taxa. Based on the findings of meta-analysis and previous literature, five pre-isolated rice rhizospheric bacterial strains belonging to the genera Results: Based on meta-analysis of 16S amplicon datasets and literature review bacterial isolates possessing drought tolerance and plant growth-promoting traits, were selected for the pot experiments. Soil inoculation with selected bacterial strains showed that the treatment groups Conclusion: The isolate
