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
Microspore culture is an efficient and rapid method that produces doubled haploid (DH) lines for hybrid breeding in crops and vegetables. However, the low frequency of microspore embryogenesis and spontaneous diploidization in Chinese kale still require improvement. In the present work, an efficient microspore culture protocol was constructed and used for DH producing in Chinese kale breeding. The results showed that kinetin (KT) and methylene blue (MB) improved microspore embryogenesis and embryo development. The spontaneous diploidization rates were below 14.48%. Therefore, artificial doubling was used for haploids; the doubled haploid rate was significantly increased, and the highest doubling rate reached 33.75% with pendimethalin. 98 DH lines were obtained in this study. This study also identified the horticultural characters of the DH lines, which showed significant differences between them. All DH lines were self-incompatible. The hybrid crosses were performed using five DH lines selected for the Chinese kale breeding. This study was helpful to accelerate the application of microspore culture and provide DH lines for Chinese kale hybrid breeding.
