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
Aims: This study investigated how gamma irradiation affects the plant growth and the migration of cadmium (Cd) and lead (Pb) within the soil-barley system. Results: Our results demonstrated that gamma irradiation increased root length and root-shoot ratio compared with 0 Gy, as well as increased spike length, spikelet number, and spikelet grain weight. Furthermore, 50-150 Gy gamma radiation decreased Cd and Pb contents in grains compared to 0 Gy, Moreover, gamma radiation increased root bioconcentration factor for Cd and Pb (R-BCF Conclusion: Our results suggest 50-150 Gy irradiation reduces heavy metal content in grains, likely by modulating physiological responses and the plant's heavy metal transport pathways. This study offers a novel approach to low-cost pre-sowing seed treatment for mitigating grain metal contamination.
