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

backgroundHeavy metals (HMs) in agricultural soils pose a serious risk to crop safety and human health. This study evaluated the accumulation of cadmium (Cd), lead (Pb), zinc (Zn), and manganese (Mn) in Amaranthus cruentus L. cv. Pribina and integrated ionomic profiling with human health risk assessment to identify tissue-specific responses to metal exposure.

resultsPlants were cultivated in soils supplemented with 15 mg kg

conclusionsThese findings highlight Cd as the primary risk factor for food safety in contaminated soils and demonstrate that A. cruentus cv. Pribina maintains reproductive capacity under elevated metal concentrations, suggesting a notable degree of tolerance to HM stress. This study offers novel insights into the correlation between ionomic plasticity and potential health risks associated with the consumption of edible pseudocereals under environmental contamination.
