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
Southern corn leaf blight (SLB), caused by the necrotrophic pathogen Cochliobolus heterostrophus, is one of the maize foliar diseases and poses a great threat to corn production around the world. Identification of genetic variations underlying resistance to SLB is of paramount importance to maize yield and quality. Here, we used a random-open-parent association mapping population containing eight recombinant inbred line populations and one association mapping panel consisting of 513 diversity maize inbred lines with high-density genetic markers to dissect the genetic basis of SLB resistance. Overall, 109 quantitative trait loci (QTLs) with predominantly small or moderate additive effects, and little epistatic effects were identified. We found 35 (32.1%) novel loci in comparison with the reported QTLs. We revealed that resistant alleles were significantly enriched in tropical accessions and the frequency of about half of resistant alleles decreased during the adaptation process owing to the selection of agronomic traits. A large number of annotated genes located in the SLB-resistant QTLs were shown to be involved in plant defence pathways. Integrating genome-wide association study, transcriptomic profiling, resequencing and gene editing, we identified ZmFUT1 and MYBR92 as the putative genes responsible for the major QTLs for resistance to C. heterostrophus. Our results present a comprehensive insight into the genetic basis of SLB resistance and provide resistant loci or genes as direct targets for crop genetic improvement.
