Preharvest 24-epibrassinolide treatment prolongs harvest duration and shelf life in sweet corn.
Article in Food chemistry. Molecular sciences, 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
Sweet corn is perishable and have limited harvest duration and shelf life due to their quality deterioration. Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are one of the most predominant factors for maintaining quality of sweet corn during and after harvest. Brassinosteroids (BRs) can enhance the activity of antioxidant enzymes and decrease the ROS level in plants. In this study, we found that a bioactive BR (24-epibrassinolide, EBR) treatment before harvest markedly inhibited change of quality indicators (MDA content, weight loss rate, and soluble sugar content) during and after harvest. Further analysis revealed that EBR promoted the activity and transcriptions of antioxidant enzymes, maintaining lower ROS level in kernels. Meanwhile, exogenous EBR increased the expression level of genes controlling sucrose transport in sweet corn kernels. Bioinformatics and binding analysis identified that BR transcription factor ZmBES1/ZmBZR1-10 might potentially bind to and upregulate transcriptions of antioxidant enzyme genes including
