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.
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
Rice phyllosphere bacteria have potential as biocontrol candidates against foliar pathogens, but their antagonistic potential against Pyricularia oryzae remains poorly characterized. This study aimed to identify and evaluate rice phyllosphere bacteria exhibiting antagonistic activity against P. oryzae, followed by ultrastructural observation and metabolite profiling of the selected isolate using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS). A total of 75 bacterial isolates were obtained from the phyllosphere of healthy rice plants. Of these, 52 isolates were classified as non-pathogenic and non-hemolytic, with 12 isolates exhibiting antagonistic activity in the dual culture assay. Among them, OPW17, OPW19, and SR10 showed the highest radial growth inhibition, reaching 57.2%, 51.1%, and 50.0%, respectively, on day 9, and were selected for further characterization. Volatile-mediated inhibition assays also showed significant reductions in fungal colony growth. Molecular identification based on 16 S rRNA analysis identified OPW17 as Paenibacillus polymyxa, OPW19 as Bacillus cereus, and SR10 as Serratia marcescens. SEM observations revealed deformation and damage to fungal hyphae of P. oryzae after dual culture with bacterial antagonists. GC-MS profiling of OPW17 metabolite extract tentatively identified several compounds, including n-hexadecanoic acid and cis-13-octadecenoic acid. These findings support the potential of the selected rice phyllosphere bacterial isolate as biocontrol candidates against P. oryzae. Further studies are needed to characterize the volatile fraction, validate the activities of detected metabolites, and evaluate the selected isolates under greenhouse and field conditions.
