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

Cereal-legume intercropping can promote nutrient absorption by altering crop root morphology. However, its effects on root morphology and nitrogen absorption under compacted soil condition remain unclear. This study aimed to investigate the impact of maize/mung bean intercropping on maize root growth and nitrogen absorption under different soil compaction conditions. Non-compacted (1.2 g/cm³) and compacted (1.5 g/cm³) conditions were established, and three planting patterns were set under each level: maize monoculture, maize and maize intercropping, and maize and mung bean intercropping. X-ray computed tomography (CT) scanning technology and
