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

Podostemaceae, the river-weeds, are characterized by remarkable differences between species and genera, which resulted from saltational evolution. This paper presents additional cases of such two genera, which are described here from the Phou Khao Khouay National Protected Area in northern Central Laos. Molecular phylogenetic data show that Ctenobryum mangkonense (gen. & sp. nov.) is sister to Hydrodiscus koyamae, while Laosia ramosa (gen. & sp. nov.) is isolated from all Asian genera of subfamily Podostemoideae. Ctenobryum mangkonense is distinct from Hydrodiscus koyamae in the crustose roots (versus rootless in the latter), scattered flowers on the root (versus alternate on the shoot), and pectinate bracts (versus simple, sheath-like). Laosia ramosa is distinct from all the genera in the columnar, endogenously branched axes and single style-stigma complex. The axis is an enigmatic organ with combined characteristics of root, stem and leaf, pending further study. Laos, together with Thailand, is a center of diversity of the Southeast and East Asian Podostemoideae. The three monotypic genera, i.e., Ctenobryum, Hydrodiscus and Laosia, occur in neighboring and closely similar aquatic habitats within the Area. The new taxa are formally described.
