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

Pinus massoniana Lamb. is one of the most sensitive species to acid deposition among forest woody plants, but differences in acid resistance among pine families still exist. It is of great significance to study the differences in acid resistance of Masson pine families and to analyze the physiological regulation mechanism of their acid resistance. In this study, the 100-day-old seedlings of 16 Masson pine families were treated with the simulated acid rain (SAR) at different pH levels (5.6, 4.5, 3.5 and 2.5) for 100 days to investigate the plant morphology, chlorophyll content, and root physiological responses. Results showed that pine family No. 35 maintained the good morphology, high chlorophyll content and organic acids secretion, and low plasma membrane permeability exposed to SAR, while family No. 79 presented the opposite. SAR not only increased the root plasma membrane permeability, but also induced an exudation of organic acids from the pine roots, and the test parameters changed sharply when the SAR pH was lower than 4.5. The results indicated that Masson pine could resist to acidic environment (pH 4.5-5.6), and family No. 35 had the acid resistance while the family No. 79 was sensitive to acid stress. The acid resistance diversity of different pine families had close relation with the root physiological processes, including the root plasma membrane permeability and organic acids secretion. For the future research, the natural genetic variation of Masson pine in response to acid stress and its acid resistance mechanism should be further studied.
