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
introductionPatchouli is an aromatic medicinal plant. The essential oil from patchouli is widely used in the perfume and pharmaceutical industries. In vitro culture systems provide a sustainable platform for increasing biomass and secondary metabolite exploration; however, the role of light quality in regulating these responses in Tapak Tuan patchouli callus remains underexplored.
objectiveThis study compared the effects of blue, red, and white light-emitting diodes (LEDs) with fluorescent light as the control on patchouli callus cultures.
resultsAfter 8 weeks, blue LEDs produced the highest callus fresh weight (7.34 ± 0.29) and promoted early organogenic responses, with shoot primordia observed in all explants, although complete plantlets were not obtained during the culture period. Red LED treatment showed the strongest qualitative flavonoid reaction based on phytochemical screening. Further GC-MS-based metabolite profiling, expressed as relative peak area (%), indicated that red LED-treated callus had the highest number of detected compounds, including several treatment-associated compounds, whereas blue LED-treated callus showed the presence of pogostone, a pharmacologically relevant metabolite. These results indicate that different light treatments, representing both spectral and PPFD differences, were associated with distinct callus growth responses and metabolite profiles in patchouli callus.
conclusionThe integration of qualitative phytochemical screening and descriptive GC-MS profiling provides preliminary insights into LED-associated variation in patchouli callus cultures and highlights the potential use of targeted lighting strategies for optimizing biomass production and metabolite profiling. Future studies using standardized PPFD, replicated GC-MS analysis, internal standards, and quantitative biochemical assays are needed to validate these findings and clarify the underlying mechanisms.
