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
Shade tolerance is a key trait for cultivars in inter/relay-cropped soybeans in maize fields. Our previous genome-wide association study (GWAS) results on southern China soybean germplasm revealed that the shade tolerance was conferred by a complex of genes with multiple alleles. To complete our understanding of the shade tolerance gene system, GWAS with gene-allele sequences as markers (designated GASM-RTM-GWAS) was conducted in a recombinant inbred line (RIL) population between two extreme parents using the shade tolerance index (STI) and relative pith cell length (RCL) as indicators. Altogether, 211 genes, comprising 99 and 119 genes (seven shared) for STI and RCL, respectively, were identified and then annotated into a similar set of five biological categories. Furthermore, transcriptome analysis detected 7837 differentially expressed genes (DEGs), indicating plentiful DEGs involved in the expression of regulatory/causal GWAS genes. Protein-protein interaction (PPI) analysis and gene functional analysis for both GWAS genes and DEGs showed a group of interrelated causal genes and a group of interrelated DEGs; the former were included in the latter and their functions were interconnected as a gene network. For further understanding of the response of soybean to shade stress in a sequential connection, six chronological gene modules were grouped as signal activation and transport, signal-transduction, signal amplification, gene expression, regulated metabolites, and material transport. From the modules, 12 key genes were selected as entry points for further analysis. Our study provides an overview of the shade tolerance gene network as a new insight into a complex-trait genetic system, rather than the usual way of starting from a hand-picked single gene.
