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

Wild relatives of the commercially grown Vanilla planifolia, such as Vanilla odorata and V. pompona, are understudied despite their ecological and agricultural importance. Both species are listed as endangered by the IUCN, but limited research on their genetic diversity hinders effective management. While Vanilla species reproduce extensively by cloning, wild populations may retain significant genetic diversity valuable for crop improvement and conservation. To evaluate genetic diversity and structure, we analyzed 146 individuals from 10 V. pompona populations and 75 individuals from six V. odorata populations in Costa Rica, using 11 and 10 microsatellites, respectively. Vanilla odorata showed higher clonality than V. pompona (63% vs. 35%). Both species exhibited low to moderate genetic diversity (V. odorata: H
