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

Cassava mosaic disease (CMD) is caused by begomoviruses and can result in yield losses of up to 90% in susceptible varieties. Using disease-free planting material from in vitro cultures is one of the most effective ways of controlling this disease. A CMD epidemiological assessment was conducted in fields established with disease-free plantlets in Bouaké, Dabou, and Man, selected for their contrasting agroecological and CMD prevalence conditions. Virus and whitefly species characterisation was performed using PCR and sequencing. CMD incidence and severity were lowest at the Man site and highest at the Dabou site. Although whitefly abundance was relatively low at the Man and Bouaké sites compared to the Dabou site, they were a significant factor in the spread of the disease. While all resistant varieties remained asymptomatic, susceptible and tolerant varieties became infected, and some tolerant varieties were able to recover from the disease. Molecular analyses revealed the presence of two viral species:
