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

The effects of prolonged low-light stress over the whole growth period and low-light stress at the critical post-silking period on maize yield remain poorly understood, and the differential responses of various cultivars have yet to be systematically compared. To address this, field experiments were conducted in Qitai, Xinjiang, from 2023 to 2024 to investigate the effects of shading period (post-silking shading versus whole-growth-period shading), light intensity levels (CK: natural light; 30: 70% natural light; 50: 50% natural light), and planting densities (7.5 × 10
