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

The plant immune response plays a central role in maintaining a well-balanced and healthy microbiome for plant health. However, insights into how the fruit immune response and the fruit microbiome influence fruit health after harvest are limited. We investigated the temporal dynamics of the fruit microbiota and host defense gene expression patterns during postharvest storage of apple fruits at room temperature. Our results demonstrate a temporal dynamic shift in both bacterial and fungal community composition during postharvest storage that coincides with a steep-decline in host defense response gene expression associated with pattern-triggered immunity. We observed the gradual appearance of putative pathogenic/spoilage microbes belonging to genera
