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
Xenia is the phenomenon whereby the pollen genotype directly affects seed and fruit development from fertilization to seed germination. Although anthocyanin accumulation in blueberry is influenced by xenia, the mechanism remains unknown. Considering the central role hormones in modulating fruit quality, we hypothesize that xenia alters endogenous hormone levels, affecting structural gene expression and thus anthocyanin accumulation. To validate this, 'Premier' blueberries were pollinated with different pollen genotypes; and parallel phenotypes assessed included anthocyanin content, hormone content and ratio, and integrated transcriptomic analyses. Results showed that anthocyanin rapidly accumulated 60 days after pollination (DAP), but significant differences between self- and cross-pollination emerged after 40 DAP. Self-pollination in 'Premier' resulted in significantly lower anthocyanin content than when cross-pollinated with 'Brightwell' and 'Powderblue' (
