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
Fruit ripening in response to treatments with propylene, 1-methycyclopropene (1-MCP), and low temperature was characterized in 'Sanuki Gold' kiwifruit, Actinidia chinensis Planch. Propylene treatment immediately induced rapid fruit softening, increased AC-PG (polygalacturonase) and AC-EXP (expansin) mRNA accumulation, and stimulated an increase in the soluble solid concentration (SSC) and a decrease in titratable acidity (TA). After 3 d exposure to propylene, ethylene production and AC-PL (pectate lyase) mRNA accumulation were observed. 1-MCP treatment after 24 h exposure to propylene eliminated AC-PG mRNA accumulation and suppressed continued changes in SSC and TA. Application of 1-MCP at the start of the treatment, followed by continuous propylene exposure, markedly delayed fruit softening, and the expression of the cell wall-modifying genes, and changes in the SSC and TA, indicating that kiwifruit become insensitive to ethylene at least for 3 d following 1-MCP exposure. Surprisingly, significant fruit softening, mRNA accumulation of AC-PG, AC-PL, and AC-EXP, and decreased TA were observed without ethylene production in intact fruit stored at low temperature for 1 month, but not in fruit stored at room temperature. Repeated 1-MCP treatments (twice a week) failed to inhibit the changes that occurred in low temperature storage. These observations indicate that low temperature modulates the ripening of kiwifruit in an ethylene-independent manner, suggesting that kiwifruit ripening is inducible by either ethylene or low temperature signals.
