Design and experiment of a novel intelligent device suitable for automation vegetable plug seedling.
Article in PloS one, 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
To tackle the challenges of high manual labor intensity and low efficiency in traditional vegetable plug seedling processes, this study developed an automated mechanical device through innovative design, dynamic simulation, single-chip development, and prototype testing. The device integrates precision seeding technology based on the synchronized motion control of ball screws and crank sliders, which improves the qualification rate of plug sowing to 98% by "one hole one seed" sowing, and also minimizes seed waste and reduces planting costs. Automated processes like hole pressing, sowing, soil covering, fertilizing, and watering are achieved through innovative design and functional integration, ensuring efficient and high-quality plug seedling production. Additionally, real-time monitoring of vegetable cultivation parameters, including seed type, quantity, planting depth, and environmental temperature and humidity, is facilitated by wireless WiFi, intelligent screens, and Alibaba Cloud, offering valuable technical insights for the digital and intelligent advancement of new vegetable plug seedling machinery.
