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

backgroundThere is a demand for non-destructive systems in plant phenotyping which could precisely measure plant traits for growth monitoring. In this study, the growth of chilli plants (Capsicum annum L.) was monitored in outdoor conditions. A non-destructive solution is proposed for growth monitoring in 3D using a single mobile phone camera based on a structure from motion algorithm. A method to measure leaf length and leaf width when the leaf is curled is also proposed. Various plant traits such as number of leaves, stem height, leaf length, and leaf width were measured from the reconstructed and segmented 3D models at different plant growth stages.

resultsThe accuracy of the proposed system is measured by comparing the values derived from the 3D plant model with manual measurements. The results demonstrate that the proposed system has potential to non-destructively monitor plant growth in outdoor conditions with high precision, when compared to the state-of-the-art systems.

conclusionsIn conclusion, this study demonstrated that the methods proposed to calculate plant traits can monitor plant growth in outdoor conditions.
