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

Calcium (Ca) is an essential macronutrient and a secondary messenger for the proper growth and functioning of plants. It is essential for membrane stability, cell integrity, cell division, and elongation. In the soils, Ca exists in inorganic and organic forms. Inorganic fraction constitutes soil-Ca solution, which is readily available for plant uptake, exchangeable Ca, which replenishes the solution pool, and fixed Ca, which replenishes exchangeable Ca slowly upon weathering to release calcium ion (Ca
