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

This study aimed to evaluate the impact of sulfur application, particularly sulfur nanoparticles (SNPs), on yield, nutrient content, uptake, and soil sulfur dynamics in a groundnut-mustard cropping system. Two year (2021–2022) study was conducted at Anand Agricultural University, Gujarat, India. Eleven treatments of SNPs and elemental sulfur were applied via fertigation, and their effects on groundnut-mustard cropping system performance and soil properties were analyzed. The highest chlorophyll content, seed, haulm, and stover yield, as well as increased sulfur, iron, zinc, manganese, and copper content in plant parts, were observed under recommended dose of fertilizer (RDF) + SNPs at 3.0 mg S/kg soil (split application: half at sowing, half at 1 month after sowing). Sulfur fractions and Diethylene Triamine Penta Acetic acid extractable micronutrients were highest at RDF + SNPs at 4.0 mg S/kg soil, split similarly. The lowest values were recorded under control treatment. The optimized application of SNPs significantly improved yield, nutrient uptake, and sulfur use efficiency in the groundnut-mustard system, offering a sustainable alternative to conventional sulfur fertilizers. RDF + SNPs at 3.0 mg S/kg soil in a split dose is recommended as an optimum sulfur management strategy under controlled conditions. This approach supports sustainable agricultural practices and efficient nutrient management, ensuring long-term soil health and productivity.
