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

Global nitrogen (N) deposition alters soil organic carbon (SOC) dynamics in alpine grasslands, yet rhizosphere carbon turnover mechanisms remain debated due to a lack of integrated multi-omics insights. This study aimed to systematically investigate the rhizosphere carbon turnover mechanisms and explore the 6-year N addition thresholds in alpine grasslands. Leveraging a six-year in situ N addition experiment, we combined metatranscriptomics and untargeted metabolomics to systematically investigate rhizosphere carbon pathways. The 10 kg N ha
