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

Population and food demand increased rapidly so to face this increment; we must dramatically increase food crop production to ensure global food security. Hence, saline agriculture is a possible solution for producing food in salt-affected soils using saline water for irrigation. The objectives of this study were to investigate the effects of applying different types and doses of biochar to saline soil under irrigation by saline water on soil quality indicators and growth parameters and yield of arugula plant. Four types of biochar: banana leaves biochar (BLB), rice straw biochar (RSB), sorghum stalks biochar (SSB), and wood chips biochar (WCB) were applied to the soil in the pots at levels of 1%, 3%, and 5% (w/w). This pot experiment was cultivated by arugula under irrigation with saline water (6.2 dS m
