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

backgroundSilicon (Si) deficiency limits plant growth, physiological efficiency, and yield in high-value crops such as Coriandrum sativum L. A field experiment was conducted on Si-deficient soil at TNAU Coconut Farm, Coimbatore, India, using coriander variety CO (CR) 4. Seven treatments in a randomized block design with three replications evaluated calcium silicate (CaSiO

resultsSi + SSB4 integration significantly improved plant height (up to 60.9% over control), leaf area index, SPAD index, and shoot and root dry matter production. Leaf Si content increased by 84.1-88.4% over absolute control, and 21.7-24.5% over RDF alone. Antioxidant enzymes (CAT, POD, and SOD), and biochemical attributes (total soluble sugars, total soluble protein, total phenols, and ascorbic acid) were markedly enhanced, with total soluble protein recording the highest increase (194.8% over absolute control). RHA-based treatments marginally but non-significantly outperformed CaSiO
