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

key messageAntarctic Mokoshia mucilaginosa and Mokoshia rubra are associated with improved salinity tolerance in Nicotiana tabacum through coordinated regulation of photosynthetic performance and antioxidant responses, highlighting the potential of polar bacteria as bioinoculants for sustainable agriculture in saline and cold-affected ecosystems. Soil salinity is an escalating global challenge that constrains crop productivity worldwide, with particularly severe impacts in marginal agroecosystems, including those in cold regions. Here, we provide evidence that two psychrotolerant Antarctic bacterial strains, Mokoshia mucilaginosa and Mokoshia rubra, function as plant growth-promoting bioinoculants that alleviate NaCl-induced stress in Nicotiana tabacum. Both strains exhibited key plant growth-promoting traits, including indole-3-acetic acid production, phosphate solubilization, siderophore production, and nitrogen fixation. Under salinity levels of 50-150 mM NaCl, bacterial inoculation was associated with improved plant performance, including enhanced biomass accumulation, improved photosystem II efficiency (Fv/Fm, Φ
