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

Air temperature is a critical regulator of ecosystem functions, including the release of biogenic volatile organic compounds (BVOCs) that mediate biosphere-atmosphere interactions. Among these, sesquiterpenes (SQTs) stand out for their dual role as ecologically significant compounds and highly reactive atmospheric constituents. Despite the inherently complex relationship between temperature and biogenic emissions, global emission estimates rely on simplistic parameterizations, assuming a fixed exponential response across all ecosystems and environmental conditions. Here, we synthesize two decades (1997-2019) of SQT emission studies, uncovering significant variability in temperature responses and basal emission rates driven by plant functional types (PFTs) and diverse environmental co-factors. When PFT-dependent parameterizations are integrated into emission-chemistry simulations, the results reveal sensitive feedbacks on atmospheric processes, including ground-level ozone (O
