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
Optimized nitrogen (N) management (OPT), with reduced total N input and more N applied during panicle development, has been proved to increase grain yield of rice through panicle enlargement. However, the changes in panicle architecture and source of variation are not well understood. A hybrid rice variety named Tianyou 3618 was subjected to OPT and farmer's fertilizer practice (FFP) in early cropping seasons of 2016 and 2017. With 16.7 % less N input, OPT increased panicle size by 8.6 % and 27.4 %, and grain yield by 13.8 % and 12.3 % for 2016 and 2017, respectively. OPT had greater dry matter accumulation and N uptake from panicle initiation to heading, which bolstered panicle enlargement. The number of surviving florets per branch was quite constant under different N treatments for all primary, secondary, and tertiary branches, implying that panicle size was mainly determined by the number of branches rather than the number of florets per branch. Little change was observed between OPT and FFP in differentiation, degeneration and survival of primary branches and their florets. Surviving secondary and tertiary branches and their florets were significantly more under OPT than those under FFP. The increase in surviving secondary branches under OPT resulted from both enhanced differentiation and reduced degeneration. While the increase in surviving tertiary branches under OPT was merely from enhanced differentiation though their degeneration was also dramatically increased. Among the increased differentiated florets under OPT, 32.4%-36.3 % and 61.6%-67.7 % came from secondary and tertiary branches, respectively. Among the increased surviving florets under OPT, 62.2%-65.2 % and 32.5%-37.8 % came from secondary and tertiary branches, respectively. Both secondary branches and tertiary branches were principal contributors to the increase in panicle size of OPT. To our knowledge, this is the first report on the detailed changes in panicle architecture and their involvement in panicle enlargement and yield gain under OPT.
