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

Root metabolite secretion plays a critical role in increasing nutrient acquisition, allelopathy, and shaping the root-associated microbiome. While much research has explored the ecological functions of root exudates, their relevance to horticultural practices, particularly soilless cultivation, remains underexplored. Steering root exudation could help growers enhance the effectiveness of plant growth-promoting bacteria. This review summarizes current knowledge on root exudation in soilless systems, examining its process and discussing environmental influences in the context of soilless cultivation. Plants in soilless systems exhibit higher total carbon exudation rates compared to those in natural soils, with exudation profiles varying across systems and species. Root exudation decreases with plant age, with most environmental adaptations occurring during early growth stages. Several environmental factors unique to soilless systems affect root exudation. For instance, nutrient availability has a major impact on root exudation. Light intensity reduces exudation rates, and light quality influences exudation profiles in a species- and environment-dependent manner. Elevated CO
