1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Waterlogging is a major abiotic stress faced by riparian plants, posing severe threats to plant physiological metabolism and survival. Salix viminalis L., an important riparian species, exhibits strong tolerance to waterlogging. The formation of aquatic adventitious roots (AARs) is a key morphological response of S. viminalis under waterlogging conditions. However, the specific role of AARs in waterlogging tolerance in S. viminalis remains unclear. In this study, simulated waterlogging induced the formation of AARs, and AAR-removal treatments were used to systematically assess their effects on plant growth, photosynthesis, and physiological traits. The results revealed that AARs significantly increased plant height, aboveground biomass, and the root-to-shoot ratio. AARs also helped maintain stomatal opening, resulting in a higher net photosynthetic rate (Pn). In addition, AARs significantly enhanced the activities of superoxide dismutase (SOD), peroxidase (POD), catalase (CAT), and ascorbate peroxidase (APX), while significantly reducing the contents of superoxide anion radicals (O2.−) and the malondialdehyde (MDA) content, thus effectively alleviating oxidative damage. Moreover, AARs significantly promoted the accumulation of osmotic regulatory substances, including proline (Pro), soluble sugars (SS), reducing sugars (RS), and soluble proteins (SP), thus enhancing the plant’s osmotic adjustment capacity. Furthermore, AARs played a critical role in maintaining the vitality of the primary root system. In summary, AARs enhance the waterlogging tolerance of S. viminalis by modulating both morphological and physiological traits. This study could provide a reference for the application of S. viminalis in riparian and wetland ecosystems, and offer theoretical guidance for the selection and breeding of waterlogging-tolerant woody plants.
