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
Salt stress is a major abiotic stress restricting plant growth and reproductive yield. Salicylic acid (SA) and arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) symbioses play key roles in eliminating adverse effects of salt stress by modulating ion homeostasis and carbohydrate metabolism in crop plants. Sugars synthesized via carbohydrate metabolism act as osmotic adjustors and signaling molecules in activation of various defense responses against salt stress. The present study investigated the role of SA (0.5 mM) seed priming in establishment of AM symbiosis with Rhizoglomus intraradices and the impact on growth, ion-homeostasis, nutrient uptake, and sugar metabolism in Cicer arietinum L. (chickpea) genotypes under salt stress. Salinity had a negative correlation with plant growth and AM symbiosis in both genotypes with more negative effects in relatively salt-sensitive genotype than tolerant. SA enhanced the percent root colonization by significantly increasing the number of arbuscules and vesicles under salt stress. AM symbiosis was more effective in improving root biomass, root to shoot ratio, and nutrient acquisition than SA, while SA was more effective in maintaining ion equilibrium and modulating carbohydrate metabolism and reproductive yield when compared with AM inoculation. SA priming directed the utilization of total soluble sugars (TSS) towards reproductive attributes more efficiently than did AM inoculation by activating TSS metabolic consumption. In AM plants, TSS concentrations were more directed towards sink demand by the fungus itself rather than developing reproductive structures. SA priming further increased sugar export to roots of AM plants, thus favored AM symbiosis. Hence, SA seed priming-induced improvement in AM symbiosis can be a promising strategy in achieving sustainable production of chickpea genotypes under salt stress.
