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

Leaves account for the largest proportion of all organ areas for most kinds of plants, and are comprise the main part of the photosynthetically active material in a plant. Observation of individual leaves can help to recognize their growth status and measure complex phenotypic traits. Current image-based leaf segmentation methods have problems due to highly restricted species and vulnerability toward canopy occlusion. In this work, we propose an individual leaf segmentation approach for dense plant point clouds using facet over-segmentation and facet region growing. The approach can be divided into three steps: (1) point cloud pre-processing, (2) facet over-segmentation, and (3) facet region growing for individual leaf segmentation. The experimental results show that the proposed method is effective and efficient in segmenting individual leaves from 3D point clouds of greenhouse ornamentals such as
