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.
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
Introduction: In the pursuit of sustainable development, nanotechnology provides effective solutions for enhancing agricultural productivity. Nanomaterials (NMs) can be effective in increasing plant abiotic and biotic stress tolerance. Understanding the nanoparticles (NPs)-plant interaction is essential to identify the potential of NPs for growth stimulation and phytotoxicity risks. Therefore, this study aimed to evaluate the effects of biologically synthesized silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) from Methods: AgNPs were efficiently synthesized from Results: AgNPs were spherical and small [TEM average diameter of 22.97 ± 9.4 nm, NTA average size of 43 ± 36 nm, and DLS average hydrodynamic diameters of 27.44 nm (14%) and 108.4 nm (86%)]. Zeta potential revealed that NPs were negatively charged [-19.5 mV (61.3%) and -2.93 mV (38.6%)]. The diffractogram of AgNPs confirmed the presence of a face-centered cubic structure of crystalline AgNPs, while FTIR spectra showed the presence of biomolecules on their surface. The results showed a dose-dependent effect on maize growth. The increase in length and fresh weight of plants treated with a AgNPs concentration of 512 µg mL Conclusion: The lowest tested concentration of AgNPs (32 µg mL
