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

Introduction: To optimize the irrigation schedule for corn in northern Xinjiang and save water resources while maintaining stable production. Methods: Based on the actual water shortage in northern Xinjiang during summer 2024, this study set up different deficit irrigation gradient treatments according to the crop water requirement (ET Results: The results showed that in the global sensitivity analysis of the AquaCrop model, the water productivity (wp) and canopy growth coefficient (cgc) parameters had a significant impact on biomass accumulation (STi>0.10), and the canopy senescence parameter (psen) had a marked effect on yield (Si>0.05). The model parameters obtained through sensitivity analysis could meet the application requirements for simulating biomass, canopy cover, soil water content, and yield in the AquaCrop model. After optimization with DR-DPINNs, when the total irrigation amount was 472 mm, the yield increased by 10.8% and the water use efficiency rose by 11.15% compared with the conventional scheme. The DR-DPINNs method, by combining physical mechanisms with dynamic feature extraction, could significantly enhance the solving capability for high-dimensional nonlinear irrigation optimization problems. The optimized spatial and temporal irrigation distribution under a total water volume of 472 mm could achieve a simultaneous increase in yield and water use efficiency. Discussion: This study can provide theoretical methods with both mechanistic interpretability and decision-making accuracy for the dynamic optimal systems of drip-irrigated corn under water resource constraints in arid regions, and offer theoretical support and technical reference for agricultural water management in arid regions.
