The role of non-structural carbohydrates in tree physiology and forest management: a comprehensive review.
Review in Frontiers in plant science, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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.
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
Non-structural carbohydrates (NSCs) in trees, comprising soluble sugars, starch, and other labile compounds, are integral to tree physiology, resilience against environmental stressors, and the dynamics of ecosystem carbon. This review consolidates existing knowledge on the definition, forms, and functions of NSCs, examines their historical significance in forest management, and evaluates the impact of contemporary forestry practices on NSC storage. It understands the spatial and temporal dynamics of NSCs, including variability among forest types, topographic influences, and seasonal patterns, and underscores the use of remote sensing and GIS technologies in mapping carbon distribution. Additionally, the review assesses long-term trends in carbon allocation influenced by climate change and phenological variations, and proposes future strategies for incorporating carbon management into sustainable forestry. It also identifies key knowledge gaps, such as uncertainties in NSC turnover rates and the interactive effects of multiple stressors, to inform future research endeavors. This review underscores the significance of NSCs in sustaining forest health and augmenting carbon sequestration within the context of a changing global environment by integrating physiological insights with practical management strategies.
