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

High planting densities in indoor horticulture often accelerate lower-leaf chlorophyll degradation, increasing trimming frequency, reducing effective photosynthetic area, and raising labor costs. While spectral composition has been widely studied, the role of spectral bandwidth, particularly when peak wavelength is identical, remains poorly understood. Here, we used laser diodes (LDs) with an extremely narrow full width at half maximum of light spectrum (FWHM) to examine how spectral bandwidth influences photosynthesis, canopy architecture, chlorophyll degradation in leaves, and plant growth under monochromatic blue light and combined red and blue (R+B) light in tobacco (
