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
Lodging is the main constraint causing corn (Zea mays L.) yield losses by reduces nutrient uptake and limited photosynthesis. A variety of tillage management measures combined with plant growth regulators can effectively coordinate the relationship between root lodging and corn yield, considerably reduce corn lodging, and increase corn yield. The aims of this study was to explore the effects of plant growth regulators combined with tillage management practices on lodging characteristics, stem thickness, mechanical strength, root growth, and maize yield. Therefore, a field study during 2021-2022 study years, with three tillage managements practices of D: (rotary tillage), R: (conventional tillage) and B: (minimum tillage), and applied two novel plant growth regulator Y: (Yuhuangjin, 27% ethephon and 3% DTA-6), Jindele: with active ingredients of ethephon and cycocel (w/w = 3:1) and CK: water spraying with conventional tillage. The results showed that Jindele + Yuhuangjin spraying with rotary tillage considerably decreased lodging percentage, enhanced root dry weight and its distribution, stalk microstructure, lignin content, morphological trait of brace root, nutrient concentrations and endogenous hormones of root bleeding sap and maize production. Under the EYD treatment considerably improved root growth, lignin content and stem mechanical strength, while considerably reducing lodging percentage. Furthermore, NH
