Mitigation of adverse effect of cadmium toxicity in lettuce (Lactuca sativa L.) through foliar application of chitosan and spermidine.
Article in Scientific reports, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers.
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
Cadmium (Cd) stress is considered among the most harmful abiotic stresses because of its toxicity and ability to alter the ultrastructure of plants. Lettuce (Lactuca sativa L.) can readily accumulate Cd from the soil, but its elevated level posed negative effect on their development and nutritional quality. In this study, efficacy of chitosan and spermidine synergistic application was evaluated to improve Cd metal tolerance or its exclusion in lettuce. A pot experiment was conducted in a four-way completely randomized design (CRD) with 3 replicates, using two L. sativa varieties (VRIL-0205 and Green Check). Following treatments, Cd stress (10 ppm CdCl
