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

Winter warming is altering plant exposure to cold events, making it increasingly important to understand how cold hardiness dynamics respond across the dormant season. Using the Spruce and Peatland Responses Under Changing Environments (SPRUCE) experiment in northern Minnesota, we measured bud cold hardiness across four dormant seasons (2021-2025). There, a boreal peatland community was exposed to continuous active whole ecosystem warming across five levels (+0.00°C to +9.00°C) combined with atmospheric and elevated CO
