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

Macrophomina phaseolina (Tassi) Goid. is primarily a phytopathogen but also exhibits potential to cause infection in human being due to its aggressive and robust nature. Adaptation potential in M. phaseolina was assessed after exposing to heavy metal copper through analysing macro- and microscopic as well as physiological attributes. Considerable modifications were observed in morphology with an increase in concentrations (25, 75, and 100 ppm) of copper as compared with control. Total content of protein and activities of the antioxidant enzymes were affected differently at different copper concentrations. The fungal biomass, metal accumulation, metal uptake efficiency, and bioaccumulation factors were decreased due to the increase in copper concentrations. Fourier transformed infrared spectroscopic assessment showed hydroxyl, carboxyl, and amine groups as major metal accumulation sites. It is concluded that Cu-based fungicides can manage this pathogen but excessive application may accumulate in the plant that will transfer along the food chain, reaching ultimately the human body.
