Vegetative propagation of mosses under controlled conditions: A reproducible, low-cost method for sustainable moss cultivation.
Article in MethodsX, 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 protocol presents a reproducible, sustainable method for vegetative propagation of mosses under controlled but non-sterile conditions. It enables scalable cultivation of mosses for green infrastructure while reducing dependence on wild collections. The method is based on a fundamental and unavoidable trade-off: maintaining high humidity, which is essential for moss growth, while simultaneously limiting fungal and microbial contamination. This balance determines success, restricts species selection, and defines facility and management requirements. All stages of cultivation and validation must therefore consider this constant challenge: promoting moss vitality while preventing overgrowth of competing microorganisms. Compared to traditional sterile cultivation, this open-system method lowers costs and technical complexity without compromising growth efficiency. Four moss species -
