Onion plants (
Article in Heliyon, 2023. 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
As salinity is one of the main environmental stresses that reduces the growth and productivity of crops by reducing water uptake and transport, in this work, we associated the physiological tolerance response of onion to increased NaCl concentration (from 25, 50, 75, to 100 mM) with the expression of aquaporins. Measurements of transpiration, gas exchange and nutrients content in leaf, roots and bulb tissues were determined in relation to the expression of PIP2, PIP1, and TIP2 aquaporin genes. The results indicated a significant decrease in growth in leaves, roots and bulbs only when 50 mM NaCl was applied. However, this was not correlated with the rest of the parameters, such as transpiration, number of stomata, osmotic potential, or chlorophyll concentration. In this way, the finding that the decreases in Mn, Zn and B observed in leaves, roots and bulbs at 50 mM NaCl were related to the expression of aquaporins, leaded to propose two phases of responses to salinity depending on level of NaCl. Therefore, the activation of PIP2 at 75 mM, in relation to Zn uptake, is proposed as relevant in the response of onion to high salinity.
