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

backgroundLow temperatures are a significant environmental factor that can adversely impact the growth and productivity of tropical plants, such as Cape gooseberry (Physalis peruviana L.). In the current experiment, the foliar application of amino acids L-phenylalanine (Phe), L-cysteine (Cys), or sodium selenite (Se) was investigated on qualitative and biochemical properties of Cape gooseberry fruits subjected to low temperature condition in 2-year field experiment (2021 and 2022).

resultsOur findings indicated that low temperature stress reduced membrane stability index and vitamin C content of fruits in comparison to the control plants in both years. Nonetheless, MDA, H2O2 and antioxidant enzymes activity meaningfully enhanced as a consequence of low temperature conditions. Application of Phe, Cys and Se alleviated low temperature stress by reducing MDA accumulation and significantly increasing total soluble solids, proline, total phenols, and flavonoid content. Amino acid Phe, Cys, and Se positively influenced H

conclusionOverall, the foliar application of Phe, Cys, and Se enhanced antioxidant compounds, enzyme activities, and proline accumulation, contributing to improved membrane stability and fruit quality in Cape gooseberry plants grown under cold stress conditions.
