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

Gloriosa superba L., a medicinally important plant, is often affected by leaf blight disease caused by Alternaria alternata, which compromises its productivity. This study explores the protective effects of Bacillus australimaris endophyte (NBRI GS34), demonstrating that its inoculation not only inhibits the disease but also promotes plant growth and increases the concentrations of bioactive metabolites. Co-culturing NBRI GS34 with A. alternata significantly boosts protease (30-50%) and chitinase (6-28%) activities, evidencing a synergistic interaction. Scanning electron microscopy and GC-MS analysis confirm NBRI GS34's antagonistic action and reveal antifungal compounds like undecanoic acid and benzene carboxylic acid in treatments. Greenhouse experiments show a 78% reduction in disease incidence with NBRI GS34 treatment, enhancing vegetative growth and upregulating defense-related genes. Additionally, HPLC analysis reveals increased gloriosine and colchicine concentrations by 52% and 33%, respectively. These findings suggest NBRI GS34 could serve as a sustainable fungicide alternative, enhancing the production of medically valuable compounds and highlighting its potential pharmaceutical applications.
