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

Choline-based ionic liquids (ILs) have emerged as promising candidates for application in multifaceted avenues, including electrochemistry, biomaterials, and environmental remediation technologies. However, their regulatory effects on the growth of agricultural plants have rarely been discussed. In this study, 14 choline-fatty acid ILs ([Chl][FA] ILs) containing different FA anions were synthesized, and their effects on the maize growth were investigated. Hydroponic experiments revealed that low concentrations (20 mg/L) of dicarboxylic acid-based [Chl][FA] ILs (e.g., choline pentane diacid [Chl][Pent]) significantly promoted maize root and shoot biomass, whereas higher concentrations inhibited it. Specifically, [Chl][Pent] enhanced chlorophyll content without altering Fv/F
