Knowledge base and online identification key of native Asian thorny bamboos within
Article in PhytoKeys, 2026. 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 study presents a checklist of 13 species of thorny bamboos native to Asia and documents them to contribute to a broader understanding of their morphology. To support this list and facilitate species recognition, a morphological database was compiled from a wide range of published sources and paired with an interactive identification key. This key incorporates diagnostic illustrations, descriptive characters, and precise definitions, thereby enabling more accurate identification. In addition to morphological traits, the database includes general notes, taxonomic synonymy, and bibliographic references for each species. Initial testing was conducted with specimens housed at the MNHN Herbarium in Paris, representing a first step toward validation. The current version provides a useful reference for both field and herbarium studies, and the framework has been designed for continuous updating as new data become available. Detailed results of the identification key are available at https://thornybamboo_asia.identificationkey.org.
