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

Two bacterial strains were isolated from root nodules of the chickpea plant (Cicer arietinum) in West Bengal and characterized to assess their potential for heavy metal (HM) tolerance and plant growth-promoting (PGP) attributes. Phylogenetic analysis based on the 16 S rRNA gene identified these strains, SMAJ_63 and SMAJ_180, belonging to the genera Enterobacter sp. and Labrys sp, respectively. The two strains were screened for tolerance to multiple HMs, including arsenic (As), cadmium (Cd), cobalt (Co), chromium (Cr), and copper (Cu), with particular emphasis on chromium (Cr) due to its high environmental relevance and comparatively limited exploration in the literature. Two strains, SMAJ_63 and SMAJ_180, were evaluated for their tolerance to HMs, and their IC
