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
Responding to growing concerns regarding intensive use of chemical fertilizers in wheat cultivation, the adoption of biostimulants offers an instrumental solution aligning wheat production with the aims of sustainable development goal 2 (zero hunger) and sustainable agriculture. The objective of this present work was to assess the biostimulant activity of ten eco-extracts prepared from soil-isolated cyanobacteria in promoting wheat growth, physiology, yield, grain quality, and nutrient uptake under greenhouse conditions. Eco-extracts applied via soil drenching at 0.1 g/L induced wheat growth enhancement, with no phytoinhibitory effects. Biochemical characterization of cyanobacteria eco-extracts revealed the presence of bioactive compounds, including indole-3-acetic acid, polyphenols, and flavonoids. Enhancements were recorded in biometric and physiological parameters, which increased from 28% to 63% in comparison to control. Grain yield measurements were higher in treated plants (between 19% and 108%) while grain sugar, protein, and polyphenol contents were boosted (between 24% and 159%). Eco-extracts application improved treated plants nutrient uptake through improved abilities to accumulate and uptake phosphorus. Effects were also significates on soil properties implying positives modifications in soil physicochemical profile with increased organic carbon, organic matter, and nitrogen. Multivariate performance analysis of the different eco-extracts designated Pseudanabaena sp. CY63 and Nostoc punctiforme CY69 as the most performing across different plant traits. These findings primarily underscored the potential of eco-extracts from soil-isolated cyanobacteria as valuable biostimulants, as well as their potential as extensive inputs in sustainable wheat cultivation.
