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

Water deficit stress (WDS) is a major environmental constraint limiting crop productivity by affecting physiological and biochemical processes. This study aimed to investigate the physiological responses, secondary metabolite accumulation, antioxidant activity, and gene expression associated with drought tolerance in two anise (Pimpinella anisum L.) genotypes, Kerman (tolerant) and Gilan (sensitive). Under WDS, Kerman exhibited significantly higher osmotic potential (-2.80 MPa) and relative water content (80.6%) compared to Gilan (-6.19 MPa and 38.2%, respectively), indicating superior water retention capacity. Electrolyte leakage was significantly lower in Kerman (25.9%) than in Gilan (53.2%) after 12 days of stress, suggesting enhanced membrane stability. Drought stress markedly increased total phenolic content (TPC), total flavonoid content (TFC), and anthocyanin accumulation, with peak values in Kerman reaching 241.45 mg GAE g
