Maize grain filling characteristics in China: Response to meteorological factors.
Article in Heliyon, 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
To investigate the dynamic changes in dry matter accumulation in maize after anthesis, we established a logistic model to describe grain filling characteristics (GFC), and analyzed differences between spring and summer maize, and the influence of meteorological factors. The results showed that the logistic model accurately simulated the dynamic changes in grain growth. For spring maize, the fitted hundred-grain weight at maturity was closely related to the average grain filling rate until maturity, days of the active grain filling period, time of the maximum grain filling rate, and duration of the rapid increase in grain weight. For summer maize, it was closely related to the time of the maximum grain filling rate, days of active grain filling period, duration of gradual grain weight, and the rapidly increasing period. The filling characteristics of spring and summer maize differed because of the different meteorological conditions and biological characteristics. The grain filling duration of spring maize was longer than that of summer maize. The maximum grain filling rate of spring maize occurred later than that of summer maize. Temperature and precipitation were the main meteorological factors affecting the hundred-grain weight of spring maize, whereas temperature was the main factor affecting summer maize. The response of spring maize GFC to meteorological factors was more complex than that of summer maize. These results are important for the development of appropriate strategies for improving maize productivity in China.
