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

Foliar fertilizers are efficient in enhancing nutrient utilization. This experiment aims to improve leaf physiological functions, enhance fruit quality, increase yield, and boost orchard productivity through the screening of foliar fertilizers suitable for apple trees. The 6-year-old apple trees of the 'Snick' were used as experiment material. The results of measurements amino acids, calcium, boron, and potassium indicate that different foliar fertilizers can improve fruit quality and aroma by enhancing leaf physiological functions. In apple fruit, amino acid foliar fertilizer increased the tartaric acid content by 44.26%. Calcium foliar fertilizer resulted in a 32.39% increase in vitamin C, a 19.71% increase in sucrose compared to the control, with a total aroma substance increase of 13.41%. Boron foliar fertilizer elevated flavonoid content in the peel to 3.67 mg·g
