Impact of mercury on photosynthetic performance of Lemna minor: a chlorophyll fluorescence analysis.
Article in Scientific reports, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of chlorophyll fluorescence analysis in detecting the effects of mercury (Hg) treatment in duckweed species Lemna minor. The results showed that Hg treatment (ranging from 0.0 to 0.4 µM) significantly impacted the plant's photosynthetic ability, with a decrease in variable chlorophyll fluorescence, energy fluxes, density of reaction centers, and performance index. Complete inhibition of electron transport was observed in plants treated with high Hg concentrations, and the quantum yield of primary photochemistry and the ratio of dissipated energy to absorption both decreased with increasing Hg concentrations. Performance Index (PI) was significantly affected by the Hg concentrations, reaching zero in plants treated with the highest Hg concentration. Overall, JIP analysis was found to be an effective tool for detecting deleterious effects of Hg in plants.
