Impact of seasonal flooding and hydrological connectivity loss on microbial community dynamics in mangrove sediments of the southern Gulf of Mexico.

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.
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
Background: Mangrove ecosystems play essential roles in coastal resilience, carbon sequestration, and biodiversity but are under increasing threat from anthropogenic pressures. This study explores the impact of hydrological variability on microbial communities in mangrove sediments of the southern Gulf of Mexico. Methods: We employed 16S rRNA sequencing to assess microbial diversity and function across different hydrological zones, seasons, and sediment depths at Estero Pargo. Results: Our results show that microbial community composition is significantly influenced by hydrological conditions, with distinct microbial assemblages observed across the fringe, basin, and impaired zones. Seasonal variations were particularly pronounced, with higher microbial diversity during the flood season compared to the dry season. Depth also played a critical role, with surface layers (5 cm) predominantly featuring aerobic microbial communities, while deeper layers (20-40 cm) harbored anaerobic taxa such as
