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

An understanding of the biomechanical properties of radish petioles is critical for the rational design of harvesting machinery and the optimization of the harvesting process. At present, research on the biomechanical properties of radish petioles is relatively scarce, and there is a lack of bonding parameters for the discrete element simulation model of radish petioles. To address these challenges, this study explores the impact of varying petiole parts, moisture content, and tissue structure on their mechanical properties through histological analysis and torsional testing. Subsequently, a discrete element simulation model for radish petioles, suitable for mechanized harvesting processes, was developed based on the BondingV2 model. The model's bonding parameters were optimized through Plackett-Burman and central composite experiments. The experimental results indicate that the torsional modulus of the radish petiole is significantly influenced by moisture content and tissue structure, with the highest torsional modulus observed at the petiole's distal end, exhibiting optimal mechanical performance at intermediate moisture levels. The petiole's distal end exhibited the following properties: unit area normal stiffness coefficient is 2×10
