Foliar application of melatonin delay leaf senescence in maize by improving the antioxidant defense system and enhancing photosynthetic capacity under semi-arid regions.
Article in Protoplasma, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 27 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
Melatonin is an important plant growth regulator which plays a key role in plant growth and development. The objective of the current research was to evaluate the effect of foliar application of melatonin (MF) on photosynthetic efficiency, antioxidant defense mechanism, and its relation with leaf senescence in maize crop grown in a semi-arid region. A field experiment was conducted during 2017 and 2018 growth season, where melatonin was applied to the foliage at concentrations of 0 (MF
