VRoot: A VR-Based application for manual root system architecture reconstruction.
Article in Plant phenomics (Washington, D.C.), 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
This article describes an immersive virtual reality reconstruction tool for root system architectures from 3D scans of soil columns. In practical scenarios, experimental conditions will be adapted to fit the need of the data analysis pipeline, including sieving and drying the soil before scanning. Based on previous reports of automatic systems that do not represent what experts would annotate, we developed a virtual reality system to assist with the extraction of root systems in cases in which automated approaches fall short of expert knowledge. The aim of the present study is to evaluate whether our immersive method is superior to classical annotation approaches when tested on synthetic data sets using untrained participants. Our laboratory user study consists of evaluating the root extractions of participants, along with their rating on central user experience and usability measures. We show significant improvement in
