Detecting and Quantifying Xylem Embolism by Synchrotron-Based X-Ray Micro-CT.
Article in Methods in molecular biology (Clifton, N.J.), 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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 vulnerability to xylem embolism is a key trait underlying species-specific drought tolerance of plants, and hence is critical for screening climate-resilient crops and understanding vegetation responses to drought and heat waves. Yet, accurate determination of embolism in plant's xylem is challenging, because most traditional hydraulic techniques are destructive and prone to artefacts. Hence, direct and in vivo synchrotron-based X-ray micro-CT observation of xylem conduits has emerged as a key reference technique for accurate quantification of vulnerability to xylem embolism. Micro-CT is nowadays a fundamental tool for studies of plant hydraulic architecture, and this chapter describes the fundamentals of acquisition and processing of micro-CT images of plant xylem.
