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

Aspirin (Asp) is extensively used in human health as an anti-inflammatory, antipyretic, and anti-thrombotic drug. In this study, we investigated if the foliar application of Asp on tomato plants has comparable beneficial effects on photosynthetic function to that of salicylic acid (SA), with which it shares similar physiological characteristics. We assessed the consequences of foliar Asp-spray on the photosystem II (PSII) efficiency of tomato plants, and we estimated the reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation and the chloroplast ultrastructural changes. Asp acted as an osmoregulator by increasing tomato leaf water content and offering antioxidant protection. This protection kept the redox state of plastoquinone (PQ) pull (q
