Article in Plants (Basel, Switzerland), 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
Efficient apple orchard water management under climate variability requires understanding how fruit load and water supply regulate branch-scale water use to optimize irrigation, yield, and fruit quality. During the summer of 2014, sap flow (SF) and maximum daily shrinkage (MDS) were measured in one branch from six apple trees (Malus domestica Borkh. Cv. 'Jazz™') using the Compensation Heat Pulse method and diameter variation sensors in an orchard near Havelock North, New Zealand. One west-oriented branch per tree, with diameters of 1.5 to 2.3 cm, was monitored alongside midday stem (ψs) and leaf (ψl) water potentials, leaf gas exchanges, leaf area index (LAI), and fruit dry matter per branch at the end of the growing season. Half of the trees were subjected to irrigation withdrawal after day of year (DOY) 31 (non-irrigated treatment), resulting in a significantly lower midday stem water potential (ψs) by DOY 56 (-1.03 MPa). Pre-harvest, SF and MDS were tightly correlated (r
