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

This study examined the impacts of different LED spectra on the growth of in vitro cultures of Musa acuminata cv. red banana and their biochemical profile, including the antioxidant enzymes catalase and ascorbate peroxidase, photosynthetic pigment and accumulation of total carbohydrate content. The far-red LEDs significantly increase shoot elongation (10.04 cm). The greatest number of shoots (2.97) and the greatest multiplication rate (80%) were obtained under the treatment with blue + red LEDs. The formation of microshoots were also enhanced by blue and white LED exposure in a range of 2-2.57 shoots per explant. Root formation was also stimulated by dichromatic blue + red (6.00) LED using MS medium with 2 µM indole-3-butyric acid (IBA). The enzymes catalase and ascorbate peroxidase were significantly up-regulated by irradiation with far-red (0.11 ± 0.02 CAT, 0.18 ± 0.04 APX U/mg) and blue (0.08 ± 0.01CAT, 0.10 ± 0.01APX U/mg) LED light. Total chlorophyll (0.45 to 0.80 mg/g) was elevated significantly by blue, blue + red and mint-white LED. On the other hand, carotenoids (12.08-14.61 mg/g) were significantly boosted by blue + red, red and mint-white LED light. Meanwhile, porphyrin (294.10-350.57 mg/g) was highly synthesised after irradiation with mint-white light. Irradiation with LED light significantly increased the accumulation of carbohydrates with the highest carbohydrate content under blue + red LED light (102.22 ± 2.46 mg/g) and blue light (91.69 ± 2.10 mg/g). In conclusion, these results confirm that the vegetative properties and biochemical profile of red banana in vitro are eustress response to LED spectra.
