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

Background: The large-scale cultivation of dragon fruit ( Methods: From March to June 2019, a field trial was conducted in a mountainous dragon fruit orchard in Guizhou Province. A comprehensive evaluation of nine leguminous green manure species was performed using membership function analysis. Agronomic performance and weed-suppression effects were analyzed, with natural grass cover as a control, and correlations with green manure growth traits were examined. Results: Common bean ( Conclusion: Common bean, rice bean, and bush bean are recommended as optimal summer green manure species for weed management in mountainous dragon fruit orchards. Rapid emergence and high biomass accumulation are key traits for effective weed suppression. Their prioritized application is advised, with subsequent long-term, multilocation trials recommended to assess their comprehensive ecological and economic benefits.
