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

Cocopeat is among the most frequently utilized substrates in soilless farming. Nonetheless, the extraction of Cocopeat generates a detrimental carbon footprint, highlighting the necessity for alternative, sustainable substrate options. To tackle this issue, we examined the effects of substituting Cocopeat with a blend of various Rice straw, Sawdust, and compost on cucumber growth and yield over two growing seasons, 2021-2022 and 2022-2023. The treatments included Cocopeat 100% (control), sawdust 100%, rice straw 100%, compost 100%, combinations of Cocopeat and sawdust (1:1, v/v), combinations of Cocopeat and sawdust (3:1, v/v), combinations of Cocopeat and rice straw (1:1, v/v), combinations of Cocopeat and rice straw (3:1, v/v), combinations of Cocopeat and compost (1:1, v/v), and combinations of Cocopeat and compost (3:1, v/v). The highest yield was recorded with rice straw at 100.55 ton ha
