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

Despite many studies on the high aluminum (Al) tolerance of rice (Oryza sativa), its exact mechanisms remain largely unknown. It is also unclear why Al improves growth of some plants. Our research on interactions between nitrogen (N) and Al may help to understand these phenomena. Previously, we found that ammonium-supplemented rice was more Al tolerant than nitrate-supplemented rice. Furthermore, Al-tolerant rice varieties preferred ammonium, while Al-sensitive ones preferred nitrate; in fact, Al tolerance was significantly correlated with the ammonium/nitrate preference among rice varieties. Al even enhanced growth of ammonium-supplemented rice, while it inhibited growth of nitrate-supplemented rice. Based on our own and other reports on N-Al interactions, we propose that intermediate products of N metabolism may play a role in rice Al tolerance. Al-enhanced ammonium utilization may explain why Al promotes growth of some plants, since Al often coexists with higher levels of ammonium than nitrate in acid soils.
