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 paper discussed the effects of growth agents and mercury on the growth of four herb species subjected to a pot experiment: Aloe vera, Setcreasea purpurea, Chlorophytum comosum, and Oxalis corniculata. We determined the height and biomass production of selected plants treated with different growth agents and different concentrations of mercury solutions. We evaluated the relative growth rate (RGR) of the experimental plants. The aim of the study was to explore potential novel solutions to the shortcoming of the low speed of phytoremediation. The results showed that the upper parts of Aloe vera and Chlorophytum comosum had the fastest growth in the treatment with water only. In contrast, the upper parts of Setcreasea purpurea grew most intensely after the treatment with Lvyebao Fertilizer, whereas the aboveground parts of Oxalis corniculata had the fastest growth after the application of water and the occasional use of Green Cake Fertilizer. In addition, the tolerance to mercury of Oxalis corniculata was the strongest, whereas that of Chlorophytum comosum was the lowest among the species investigated.
