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

key messageMelatonin-induced growth promotion of maize seedlings is associated with maintaining coordination between gene expressions and activities of key enzymes involved in carbon and nitrogen metabolisms. Melatonin is a pleiotropic molecule that influences many diverse actions to enhance plant growth. The effect of melatonin on maintaining a necessary balance between carbon and nitrogen metabolisms that underpins the growth process in higher plants remains unclear. In this study, the influence of melatonin on nitrogen assimilation, mitochondrial respiration, and photosynthesis, which are major pathways related with carbon and nitrogen metabolism, was investigated on the basis of the seedling growth of maize. Melatonin applications (10, 100, and 1000 μmol L
