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

Soil salinisation severely constrains crop production. Legumes rely on rhizobial symbiosis for sustainable nitrogen acquisition. Although salinity is known to impair nodulation and nitrogen fixation, how symbiosis influences plant tolerance to salt stress remains unclear. In this study, we integrate physiological, biochemical, transcriptomic, ionomic, and metabolomic analyses to investigate the role of rhizobial symbiosis in salinity tolerance in Vicia sativa (common vetch) and Pisum sativum (pea). In both species, nodulated plants exhibited markedly enhanced survival and grain production under prolonged salt stress compared with nitrogen-fertilised (N-fed) controls. Under moderate salinity, nodulation helped maintain water status and stomatal conductance, reduced Na
