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

Chromium (Cr) contamination severely reduces soybean growth by impairing photosynthesis, nutrient uptake, and osmolyte balance, posing a significant threat to food security. This study evaluated the synergistic effects of multiwalled carbon nanotubes (CNTs) and jasmonic acid (JA) in mitigating chromium (Cr) stress in soybean plants. Chromium stress markedly reduced delta amino levulinic acid (64.33%), Glutamate-1-semialdehyde (66.87%), carotenoids (58.11%), RuBisCo activity (73.01%), and total soluble sugar (48.34%), while increasing oxidative damage as indicated by higher malondialdehyde and electrolyte leakage. Co-application of CNTs and JA effectively mitigated Cr-induced oxidative stress in soybean by reducing hydrogen peroxide and malondialdehyde levels. It also improved SPAD chlorophyll, PSII efficiency, net photosynthetic rate, and transpiration rate, along with increasing flavonoid, protein, and iron content, while lowering Cr accumulation. Chromium stress significantly reduced total phenols (51.11%), flavonoids (57.12%), free amino acids (50.06%), carbon (46.12% & 53.07%), phosphorus (53.34% & 50.22%), copper (39.64% & 41.28%), and zinc (52.03% & 63.74%). However, CNTs and JA application reversed these effects by enhancing total phenols, flavonoids, free amino acids, carbon, phosphorus, copper, and zinc. Additionally, Cr accumulation in both shoots and roots was significantly reduced with CNTs and JA supplementation. Therefore, CNTs and JA mitigated Cr toxicity by improving growth, photosynthesis, antioxidant enzymes activity, and nutritional homeostasis. These findings demonstrate the potential of CNTs and JA as sustainable nano-hormonal based strategy for reducing Cr accumulation in soybean and safeguarding food security.
