Leaves to Measure Light Intensity.
Article in Advanced science (Weinheim, Baden-Wurttemberg, Germany), 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
Quantitative measurement of light intensity is a key step in ensuring the reliability and the reproducibility of scientific results in many fields of physics, biology, and chemistry. The protocols presented so far use various photoactive properties of manufactured materials. Here, leaves are introduced as an easily accessible green material to calibrate light intensity. The measurement protocol consists in monitoring the chlorophyll fluorescence of a leaf while it is exposed to a jump of constant light. The inverse of the characteristic time of the initial chlorophyll fluorescence rise is shown to be proportional to the light intensity received by the leaf over a wide range of wavelengths and intensities. Moreover, the proportionality factor is stable across a wide collection of plant species, which makes the measurement protocol accessible to users without prior calibration. This favorable feature is finally harnessed to calibrate a source of white light from exploiting simple leaves collected from a garden.
