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

Cadmium (Cd) is a non-essential, highly phytotoxic element and a widespread pollutant in agricultural soils. Employing biofertilizers and nanoparticles (NPs) has been identified as an effective strategy to alleviate the detrimental impacts of heavy metal (HM)-contaminated soils. Previous studies have provided partial insights into the individual roles of CQD‑NPs and AMF under drought stress; however, information on their combined effects is still limited and fragmented. Therefore, the present study aimed to evaluate the individual and synergistic effects of CQD-NPs and AMF on the yield and EO quality of grapefruit mint under Cd-induced stress. To evaluate this, a factorial experiment was conducted in a completely randomized design (CRD) with 32 treatments and three replications. The first factor consisted of four Cd concentrations (0, 10, 20, and 40 mg Cd kg
