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

Saffron can be infected with pathogenic fungi that cause corm rot as it grows and multiplies, which can reduce the quality and yield of saffron. Corm rot has become one of the most serious diseases of saffron. In this study, rhizosphere bacteria were isolated from saffron rhizosphere soil, and bacteria exhibiting antagonistic effects against corm rot pathogenic fungi were screened using in vitro plate co-culture assays and dual-compartment agar plate systems. Selected strains were further evaluated for hydrolase activity determination and PGP potential assessment. Among them, Bacillus velezensis showed the best disease resistance activity. The degradative enzyme production and some beneficial characteristics of Bacillus velezensis for plant growth promotion were evaluated. It was found that Bacillus velezensis possesses nitrogen fixing, NH
