Interaction of surfactants with barley leaf surfaces: time-dependent recovery of contact angles is due to foliar uptake of surfactants.
Article in Planta, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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.
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
MAIN
conclusionTime-dependent contact angle measurements of pure water on barley leaf surfaces allow quantifying the kinetics of surfactant diffusion into the leaf. Barley leaf surfaces were sprayed with three different aqueous concentrations (0.1, 1.0 and 10%) of a monodisperse (tetraethylene glycol monododecyl ether) and a polydisperse alcohol ethoxylate (BrijL4). After 10 min, the surfactant solutions on the leaf surfaces were dry leading to surfactant coverages of 1, 10 and 63 µg cm
