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

Different cultivars of pear trees are often planted in one orchard to enhance yield for its gametophytic self-incompatibility. Therefore, an accurate and robust modelling method is needed for the non-destructive determination of leaf nitrogen (N) concentration in pear orchards with mixed cultivars. This study proposes a new technique based on in-field visible-near infrared (VIS-NIR) spectroscopy and the Adaboost algorithm initiated with machine learning methods. The performance was evaluated by estimating leaf N concentration for a total of 1285 samples from different cultivars, growth regions, and tree ages and compared with traditional techniques, including vegetation indices, partial least squares regression, singular support vector regression (SVR) and neural networks (NN). The results demonstrated that the leaf reflectance responded to the leaf nitrogen concentration were more sensitive to the types of cultivars than to the different growing regions and tree ages. Moreover, the AdaBoost.RT-BP had the best accuracy in both the training (R
