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

Plants naturally contain high levels of the stress-responsive fluorophore chlorophyll. Chlorophyll fluorescence imaging (CFI) is a powerful tool to measure photosynthetic efficiency in plants and provides the ability to detect damage from a range of biotic and abiotic stresses before visible symptoms occur. However, most CFI systems are complex, expensive systems that use pulse amplitude modulation (PAM) fluorometry. Here, we test a simple CFI system, that does not require PAM fluorometry, but instead simply images fluorescence emitted by plants. We used this technique to visualize stress induced by the photosystem II-inhibitory herbicide atrazine. After applying atrazine as a soil drench, CFI and color images were taken at 15-minute intervals, alongside measurements from a PAM fluorometer and a leaf reflectometer. Pixel intensity of the CFI images was negatively correlated with the quantum yield of photosystem II (ΦPSII) (
