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

Efficient water management is critical for sustainable chrysanthemum production under protected cultivation was conducted at Indian Agricultural Research Institute (IARI), New Delhi, India. While HYDRUS-based models are widely used for simulating soil water dynamics under drip irrigation, their application in floriculture crops remains limited, particularly for deriving crop-specific irrigation strategies. This study integrates field experimentation (2020-2023) with HYDRUS-2D simulations to evaluate soil water distribution under drip fertigation across multiple soil types. The effects of emitter discharge, irrigation scheduling, and soil hydraulic properties were analyzed to determine optimal root-zone moisture conditions. Results showed that soil moisture remained within the optimal range for up to 48 h after irrigation under appropriate scheduling. Among soil types, moisture retention followed the order: silt ≈ silty clay loam > loam > sandy clay loam > sandy loam. Model validation demonstrated high accuracy (R
