1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Acidovorax citrulli is one of the most important pathogens of cucurbit crops, mainly melon and watermelon. Although A. citrulli is able to infect all aerial parts of the plant, fruits are highly sensitive to the bacterium. Therefore, the disease is known as bacterial fruit blotch (BFB). The unavailability of effective tools for managing BFB, including the lack of resistant varieties, exacerbates the threat this disease poses to the cucurbit industry. However, despite the economic importance of BFB, still little is known about basic aspects of A. citrulli-plant interactions. Here, we present diverse techniques that have recently been developed for investigation of basic aspects of BFB, including identification of virulence determinants of the pathogen.
