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

A two-year field experiment was conducted to quantify the influence of spatial configuration on soil organic acids, agronomic traits, competitive indices, and economic returns in faba bean-garlic intercropping. Intercropping patterns, particularly the faba bean-garlic side-by-side arrangement (1SF:1SG), remarkably increased rhizosphere levels of ascorbic, salicylic, citric, oxalic, and total organic acids. Notably, the alternating ridge arrangement (2RF:2RG) maximized the stem and whole-plant dry weight of faba bean, whereas the 1SF:1SG pattern produced the heaviest fresh and dry bulb weights of garlic in both seasons. The highest yields were obtained from sole cropping, with 4275.20 kg ha
