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

Global herbaria are the greatest repositories of information on the plant kingdom. Discoveries of trace element hyperaccumulator plants have historically required time-consuming destructive chemical analysis of fragments from herbarium specimens, which severely constrains the collection of large datasets. Recent advances in handheld X-Ray Fluorescence spectroscopy (XRF) systems have enabled non-destructive analysis of plant samples and here we propose a new method, which we term "Herbarium XRF Ionomics", to extract elemental data from herbarium specimens. We present two case studies from major tropical herbaria where Herbarium XRF Ionomics has led to the discovery of new hyperaccumulator plants and provided valuable insights into phylogenetic patterns of trace element hyperaccumulation. Herbarium XRF Ionomics is a new value proposition for continued funding and retention of herbarium specimens globally.
