Novel Polysaccharide Hydrogels Enriched with Humic Acid for Sustainable Agricultural Applications.
Article in ACS omega, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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
This study deals with the development of humic acid (HA)-enriched hydrogels aimed at enhancing water retention and promoting plant growth for agricultural applications. A set of hydrogels based on spermidine (SPD)-ionotropically cross-linked gellan gum (GG) were formulated with and without the addition of karaya gum (KG). The hydrogels were structurally characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analysis, mechanical assays, scanning electron microscopy, and swelling kinetic measurements. Water retention tests indicated that both GG/HA and GG/KG/HA hydrogels preserve higher soil moisture levels compared to commercial polyacrylate hydrogels. Biodegradation studies showed that the biopolymer hydrogels lost more than one-third of their weight after 30 days of immersion in a soil aqueous extract. Both GG/HA and GG/KG/HA hydrogels exhibited no phytotoxicity on cultivation trials of
