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

Lead (Pb) induces physiological, morphological, and metabolic effects in plants. The exogenous application of ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) and citric acid (CA) is a common method to enhance the phytoextraction of Pb from plants. However, the impact of these treatments on harmel's ability to tolerate and accumulate Pb remains unclear. This study aimed to investigate the effects of CA (0, 2.5, and 5 mM) and EDTA (0, 2.5, and 5 mM) on physiological growth responses, antioxidant enzymes, as well as lead translocation factor (TF) and uptake of harmel under Pb stress (0, 5, and 25 mg L
