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

The growth and development and metabolism of plants have different physiological responses to different light qualities. To study the influence of light qualities on green onions, the impacts of LED light treatment on the growth and development as well as the nutritional components and flavor substances in green onions were studied under controlled conditions. Leaf area, plant height, dry matter accumulation, Dickson's quality index (DQI), nutritional content, and volatile compounds under different light quality treatments were determined. The results indicated that the white and blue combined light (W/B: 3/1) treatment was the most beneficial to growth and nutrient accumulation and led to higher levels of sulfur compounds in the green onions than the other treatments. This shows that it is possible to control the contents of compounds that affect consumer preferences by adjusting the lighting conditions and to thereby increase the value and quality of seasoning vegetables.
