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

Abiotic stresses such as high temperature, humidity fluctuations, and excessive light negatively impact grapevine physiological functions, resulting in irregular vegetative growth and reduced productivity. Natural plant growth regulators and essential oils offer potential eco-friendly strategies to mitigate these adverse effects. This study investigated the effects of foliar applications of 24-epibrassinosteroid (Br) at concentrations of 1, 2, and 3 mg/L and jasmine oil (JO) at 500, 1,000, and 1,500 µL/L on Flame Seedless grapevines exposed to abiotic stress. The treatments aimed to enhance vegetative development, nutrient uptake, biochemical attributes, and yield. Results showed that all treatments successfully improved the vegetative growth of Flame Seedless grapevines by increasing leaf area, shoot length, diameter, number of leaves/shoots, pruning wood weight, internode length, and coefficient of wood ripening. They also improved the mineral content in leaf petioles, total carbohydrates in canes, chlorophyll contents in leaves, and yield per vine. In addition, the quality of the Flame Seedless grapevine was improved by increasing cluster weight, length, width, berry firmness, length, width, soluble solids content (SSC), titratable acidity (TA), SSC/TA ratio, total sugars, phenols, anthocyanin, and flavonoids, activities of peroxidase (POX), phenylalanine ammonialyase (PAL), polyphenoloxidase (PPO) and catalase (CAT) enzyme in berry. Application of Br at 3 mg/L yielded the highest significant values for vegetative growth parameters, yield, and physical characteristics. While JO at a rate of 1,500 µL/L increased the total phenols, flavonoids, and anthocyanin, as well as PPO, PAL, POX activity, and CAT in the berry. Foliar application of Br and JO effectively mitigated the adverse effects of abiotic stress in Flame Seedless grapevines.
