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
Horqin Sandy Land suffers from desertification, drought, and low fertility, limiting soybean production. Agrivoltaics provides a promising integrated model; however, the effects of agrivoltaics combined with water-fertilizer management on crop productivity remain unclear. A 2-year field experiment was conducted in a semi-arid area with three treatments, open-field control (Open), shaded area under panels (Under), and light-exposed area inter-panels (Gap). Results showed that photovoltaic systems combined with integrated water-fertilizer management improved soybean yield, soil water, and nutrient conditions. Soybean grain yield was 60.7% and 38.2% higher in the Gap and Under treatments, respectively, than in the Open. The highest yield in the Gap treatment resulted from both enhanced photosynthesis and improved root development. The Under endured light stress but exhibited morphological plasticity (plant height and leaf area increased by 43.1%, 48.2%), and shading alleviated water stress since soil water content was increased by 81.6-119.0% during growing seasons, transpiration rate (
