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

Over the last half-century, the widespread use of synthetic chemical fertilizers has boosted crop yields but caused noticeable environmental damage. In recent years, the application of humic substances to increase plant growth and crop yield has gained considerable interest, largely due to their organic origin and their ability to reduce nutrient losses while enhancing plant nutrient use efficiency. Humalite, found exclusively in large deposits in southern Alberta, Canada, is rich in humic substances and has low levels of unwanted ash and heavy metals, which makes it particularly valuable for agricultural applications. However, its effects on canola, the largest oilseed crop in Canada and the second-largest in the world, have yet to be evaluated. This study investigated the effects of five Humalite rates (0, 200, 400, 800, and 1600 kg ha
