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

premiseA portable, simple, yet efficient method was developed for the rapid extraction of xylem sap from the stems and petioles of tomato plants for diagnostic and quantification assays of the xylem-colonizing wilt bacterium METHODS AND

resultsXylem saps were extracted from tomato stem sections using negative pressure generated from handheld needleless syringes. The samples were collected from plants grown under different soil moisture levels at four days after inoculation with the pathogen. Pipette tips were modified to serve as adapters for the stem sections. The quantification of the bacterial load in the extracted sap was performed by plating sap dilutions in Kelman's triphenyltetrazolium chloride (TTC) medium. Pathogen identity was further confirmed by performing a PCR using

conclusionsDue to its simplicity, portability, and thoroughness of extraction from predetermined tissue sizes, the method can potentially facilitate high-throughput onsite sampling from a large number of samples in a short time, which cannot be achieved with other available techniques.
