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

Continuous supply of high quality onion bulbs to meet year-round demand is dependent on maintaining dormancy and bulb quality during storage. Sprouting impacts negatively on the storage quality of onion bulbs. Ethylene supplementation has previously been revealed to inhibit sprout growth in stored onion bulbs. Fructans content, especially those at higher degree of polymerisation (DP), are reported to positively correlate with delayed sprouting. However, little is known about the impact of pre-harvest irrigation regimes on fructans accumulation and redistribution in relation to onion bulb dormancy and quality in store. Across two seasons, onion plants of cultivars 'Red Baron' and 'Sherpa' were subjected to full irrigation (FI) (100% replenishment of crop evapotranspiration) or deficit irrigation (DI) (50% of FI treatment) from bulb initiation to harvest. Bulbs were harvested at full maturity and stored at 1 °C for five months. Bulbs were treated with or without 1-MCP (1 μL L
