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

Airborne bacterial diseases driven by pathogen aerosols in enclosed greenhouses spread rapidly, challenging traditional early-warning methods. This study developed a two-step monitoring system for cucumber angular leaf spot using low-cost particulate matter (PM) sensors, qPCR, and machine learning. Evaluated across spatially independent greenhouse trials using 732 plot-days of data, PM sensors were utilized as dynamic physical proxies alongside microclimate data. These proxies continuously estimated the fluctuations of pathogen aerosols suspended in the greenhouse air. When estimated aerosol risks exceeded a pathogenic threshold, targeted air sampling and qPCR quantification were triggered. For pathogen monitoring, the Extra Trees (ET) surveillance model accurately predicted the accumulation of airborne pathogen aerosols (R
