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

Biological soil crusts (BSCs) play essential roles in arid ecosystems by stabilizing soil and regulating hydrological processes. BSC microbial communities comprise a small number of abundant taxa and a large pool of rare taxa, which differ in their transcriptional capacities. However, the respective contributions of abundant and rare taxa to alkali‑metal homeostasis, a process crucial for maintaining cellular osmotic balance and metabolic activity, remain poorly understood. Here, we integrated metatranscriptomic sequencing with chemical fractionation analysis of Na
