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

Unifoliolate compound leaves have a single leaflet and are common in Galipeinae, the most diverse lineage of Neotropical Rutaceae. In Galipeine, the apical end of the petiole is swollen (apical swollen) has been interpreted as evidence of a compound nature. Additionally, recent studies have also identified traces of lateral leaflets that undergo early abortion. Here, we analyzed leaf ontogeny and vascularization in nine genera to investigate the structural organization and possible compound origin of unifoliolate leaves in Galipeinae. Shoot apices and mature leaves were examined using light microscopy and scanning electron microscopy, and selected species were examined using micro-computed tomography, providing a broader understanding of the vascular architecture in the apical swelling. Two vascularization patterns were identified at the apical swollen: (Type 1) vascular plexus formed by traces of early aborted lateral leaflets (
