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

Global fruit production suffers from pre- and post- harvest losses, part of which are related to metal deficiencies. Despite fruits being one of the most widely consumed plant parts, the spatial distribution of metals and their possible physiological impact remained largely unexplored. In this study, we searched for conserved metal accumulation sites in fruits of various crops and investigated their physiological function. By using X-ray and histochemical-based techniques, we found that calcium accumulated in the outermost hardened tissues, potassium in fleshy tissues, and iron (Fe) in vascular tissues. Furthermore, seeds accumulated Fe in the fruit-seed juncture, which remained in the chalazal part of the seed upon dispersal. In
