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

Acceleration of photoprotective nonphotochemical quenching (NPQ) responses to changes in light intensity has been suggested as a strategy to enhance crop yield. Our current understanding of NPQ overwhelmingly comes from C3 species, and despite many key crops being C4, separating the impact of photosynthetic pathway from species-specific effects is complicated by the large evolutionary distance between most C3 and C4 species. By conducting a series of experiments on C3 and C4 species from
