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

Introduction: Intensified drought induced by climate change is threatening the natural regeneration of forests, yet coexisting tree species can maintain their survival and regeneration by adopting divergent carbon allocation strategies. This study compared leaf-scale drought responses of Methods: Multiple indicators were measured under four water regimes: control (CK), light drought (LD), moderate drought (MD), and severe drought (SD), including leaf morphology, photosynthetic and gas exchange parameters, hydraulic traits, carbon storage traits, stress defense traits, and nutrient stoichiometry. Principal component analysis (PCA) and structural equation modeling (SEM) were used to evaluate interspecific differences in drought adaptation strategies. Results: Drought suppressed leaf growth and gas exchange, lowered leaf water potential and relative water content, aggravated damage to hydraulic function, and boosted biochemical responses associated with stress defense in both species. For Discussion: Seedlings of
