Silicon ameliorates cadmium (Cd) toxicity in pearl millet by inducing antioxidant defense system.
Article in Heliyon, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Cadmium (Cd) stress is a significant environmental pollutant that can negatively impact crop yield and growth, and is a serious global issue. However, silicon (Si) has been shown to have a potential function in alleviating the effects of several abiotic stress conditions on crops, including Cd stress. This study investigated the effectiveness of applying silicon to soil as a method for reducing cadmium toxicity in pearl millet (IP14599) seedlings. Seeds of IP14599 were treated with Si + Cd element which cumulated to a combination of 9 treatments. Different Cd concentration of (0, 200, and 300 mg/kg-
