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
Introduction: Lei bamboo (Phyllostachys praecox) is widely cultivated due to its early-season bamboo shoots, but the mechanisms linking its underground system regulation and shoot quality remain unclear. Methods: This study assessed the impact of Bacillus subtilis (T1, 250 kg·hm-2), bamboo charcoal (T2, 1500 kg·hm-2), and their combination (T3) on soil chemistry, whips and roots morphology and biomass, hormone regulation, and the biochemical quality of bamboo shoots. Results: Treatment T1 notably increased soil total organic carbon and nitrogen, promoted whip development and root activity. These improvements were linked to elevated levels of GA, IAA, and CTK hormones and reduced ABA levels, which led to higher starch, soluble sugar, protein, and total amino acid contents in the bamboo shoots. Treatment T2 increased biomass of whips and roots, but also raised ABA and organic acids, improved protein and amino acids, while decreasing starch and sugar accumulation. The combined treatment T3 showed antagonistic effects, lowering amino acid content. The comprehensive evaluation ranking of bamboo shoot quality was T1 > T2 > T3 > CK. Discussion: These results reveal a new "soil chemistry-hormone-morphology and biomass-quality" cascade mechanism, and emphasize Bacillus subtilis and bamboo charcoal as promising fertilizers for producing sweet, crisp, and flavorful bamboo shoots. For practical application, it is advised that farmers apply 250 kg·hm-2 Bacillus subtilis as the fertilizer choice for the production of sweet, crisp and juicy bamboo shoots, and 1500 kg·hm-2 bamboo charcoal as the fertilizer choice for the production of bamboo shoots with unique flavors before mulching each November to enhance bamboo shoot quality and supply high-value raw materials for the bamboo industry.
