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

Natural resources, especially agrarian soils, have been much contaminated with various pollutants including heavy metals since industrial revolution, so it is pertinent to utilize green technology, the so-called phytoremediation technology for reclamation of heavy metal-contaminated soils. A pot experiment was conducted to screen four different species (Brassica juncea, Brassica napus, Brassica rapa, Brassica campestris) of Brassicaceae family for the remediation of HMs contaminated soil of Lakki Marwat city, Pakistan, irrigated with municipal wastewater. Plants were analyzed for various morpho-physiological, biochemical, and phytoextraction factors like bioaccumulation (BAF) and translocation factor (TF). Results showed maximum morpho-physiological responses including seed germination, chlorophyll content, root fresh and dry weights, and shoot fresh and dry weights in B. juncea followed by B. napus, B. campestris, and B. rapa. Plant biochemical analyses of antioxidant enzymes including superoxide dismutase (SOD), peroxidase (POD), and catalase (CAT) also exhibited maximum activity in B. juncea followed by B. napus, B. campestris, and B. rapa, respectively, in both control and contaminated soils. Conversely, plant oxidative stress markers including malondialdehyde (MDA) and hydrogen peroxide (H
