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

Salt stress poses a significant threat to crop growth. While brassinolide (BR) has been shown to alleviate its adverse effects and modulate plant development, the precise mechanism underlying BR-induced salt tolerance in rice remains unclear. In this study, the Chaoyouqianhao and Huanghuazhan rice varieties were employed to investigate the effects of BR seed soaking on the seedling phenotype, physiology, transcriptome, and metabolome under salt stress. The results demonstrated that BR treatment significantly enhanced rice plant height, root length, biomass, and antioxidant enzyme activities, while reducing leaf membrane damage, promoting ion homeostasis, and improving the photosynthetic capacity and salt tolerance. The transcriptome analysis revealed that BR regulated the expression of 1042 and 826 genes linked to antioxidant activity, ion homeostasis, photosynthesis, and lipid metabolism under salt stress. These included genes involved in Na
