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
Microbial herbicides play a vital role in agricultural preservation, amid growing concerns over the ecological impact from extensive development and use of chemical herbicides. Utilizing beneficial microbial metabolites to combat weeds has become a significant focus of research. This study focused on isolating herbicidal active compounds from Bacillus altitudinis D30202 through activity-guided methods. First, the n-butanol extract (n-BE) of B. altitudinis D30202 underwent fractionation using macroporous adsorption resin D101 and Sephadex LH-20, identifying Fr. F as the most potent segment against wild oats (Avena fatua L.). Ultra-performance liquid chromatography - quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry (UPLC - QTOF-MS) identified nine compounds in the active fraction Fr. F. Subsequently, three subfractions (Fr.F-1 to Fr.F-3) were derived from Fr.F via semi-preparative liquid chromatography, resulting in methyl indole-3-acetate (MeIAA) purification. MeIAA, functioning as an auxin analog, exhibited effects of indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) on wild oats' growth, with a root length median inhibitory concentration of 81.06 µg/ml. Furthermore, we assessed MeIAA's herbicidal impact on five weed species across diverse families and genera, providing a first-time analysis of MeIAA's mechanism on wild oats. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) revealed structural damage to leaves and roots post-MeIAA treatment. MeIAA treatment increased superoxide anion and hydrogen peroxide levels in wild oat roots, alongside with elevated peroxidase (POD) and superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity, chlorophyll-degrading enzymes (Chlase, MDACase), malondialdehyde (MDA) content, and relative conductivity in leaves. Conversely, it decreased catalase (CAT) activity and chlorophyll content. Therefore, this study provides a new material source and theoretical foundation for ecologically sustainable agricultural weed control.
