Plant Cuticles Exhibit Significant Mid-Infrared Emissivity in the Atmospheric Windows.
Article in International journal of molecular sciences, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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.
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
As sessile organisms, plants have developed strategies to cope with exposure to high radiation. The plant cuticle is located at the interface between the plant and the surrounding environment, thus acting as a first barrier that protects plants against environmental conditions, including solar radiation. The isolated cuticles displayed notable absorptance in the infrared spectral range which, according to Kirchhoff's law of thermal radiation, equals the emission dissipation ability. Comparison among the different cuticles showed that a significant range of their reflectance, transmittance, and absorbance spectra match the spectral regions known as atmospheric windows, between 3-4 and 8-13 microns, located within the mid-infrared region (MIR). They allow energy to pass through into the outer space. These optical parameters varied between cuticles from different plant species and they were not a simple function of the cuticle's thickness but the product of its specific composition in combination with its molecular arrangement.
