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

The growth response of Chlorella vulgaris was studied under varying concentrations of carbon dioxide (ranging from 0.036 to 20%) and temperature (30, 40 and 50 degrees C). The highest chlorophyll concentration (11 microg mL(-1)) and biomass (210 microg mL(-1)), which were 60 and 20 times more than that of C. vulgaris at ambient CO(2) (0.036%), were recorded at 6% CO(2) level. At 16% CO(2) level, the concentrations of chlorophyll and biomass values were comparable to those at ambient CO(2) but further increases in the CO(2) level decreased both of them. Results showed that the optimum temperature for biomass production was 30 degrees C under elevated CO(2) (6%). Although increases in temperature above 30 degrees C resulted in concomitant decrease in growth response, their adverse effects were significantly subdued at elevated CO(2). There were also differential responses of the alga, assessed in terms of NaH(14)CO(3) uptake and carbonic anhydrase activity, to increases in temperature at elevated CO(2). The results indicated that Chlorella vulgaris grew better at elevated CO(2) level at 30 degrees C, albeit with lesser efficiencies at higher temperatures.
