A Novel Mechanism Underlying Multi-walled Carbon Nanotube-Triggered Tomato Lateral Root Formation: the Involvement of Nitric Oxide.
Article in Nanoscale research letters, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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.
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
Abundant studies revealed that multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) are toxic to plants. However, whether or how MWCNTs influence lateral root (LR) formation, which is an important component of the adaptability of the root system to various environmental cues, remains controversial. In this report, we found that MWCNTs could enter into tomato seedling roots. The administration with MWCNTs promoted tomato LR formation in an approximately dose-dependent fashion. Endogenous nitric oxide (NO) production was triggered by MWCNTs, confirmed by Greiss reagent method, electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR), and laser scanning confocal microscopy (LSCM), together with the scavenger of NO. A cause-effect relationship exists between MWCNTs and NO in the induction of LR development, since MWCNT-triggered NO synthesis and LR formation were obviously blocked by the removal of endogenous NO with its scavenger. The activity of NO generating enzyme nitrate reductase (NR) was increased in response to MWCNTs. Tungstate inhibition of NR not only impaired NO production, but also abolished LR formation triggered by MWCNTs. The addition of N
