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

Marigold (Tagetes erecta L.), commonly known as Cempasúchil, is a significant symbol of Mexico's Day of the Dead celebrations. However, once the festivities conclude, the flowers and petals are frequently discarded as waste, contributing to environmental pollution. Cempasúchil was dehydrated using an active mixed-type solar dryer to address this issue. This method establishes an environmentally friendly, easy-to-use, cost-effective, and practical preservation technique for rural communities. The maximum drying temperature was 69.65 °C, and the maximum solar irradiance was 1080.60 W/m
