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

Dodder (Cuscuta planiflora) is a major parasitic plant species affecting the productivity of Egyptian clover (Trifolium alexandrinum L.), an important forage crop in Egypt. A field trial was executed on Egyptian clover heavily infested with dodder during the winter seasons of 2021/2022 and 2022/2023. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of cultivar choice and seven dodder control treatments on dodder growth performance as well as growth and yield components of Egyptian clover under infestation conditions. Results indicated that Helali was the most tolerant cultivar to dodder infestation. Moreover, treatments using Fusarium incarnatum-based bioherbicide, silica nano-particles (Si-NPs), and chemical herbicide (glyphosate) effectively controlled dodder after parasitism. The application of Si-NPs at 22 and 30 g fed
