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

A cDNA clone encoding a proline-, threonine-, and glycine-rich protein (PTGRP) was isolated from a wild tomato species (Lycopersicon chilense) (L.X. Yu, H. Chamberland, J.G. Lafontain, Z. Tabaeizadeh [1996] Genome 39: 1185-1193). Northern-blot analysis and in situ hybridization studies revealed that PTGRP is down-regulated by drought stress. The level of the mRNA in leaves and stems of 8-d drought-stressed plants decreased 5- to 10-fold compared with that in regularly watered plants. The mRNA re-accumulated when drought-stressed plants were rewatered. Antibodies raised against a glutathione S-transferase/PTGRP fusion protein were used to elucidate the subcellular localization of the protein by immunogold labeling. In regularly watered L. chilense plants, PTGRP protein was found to be localized in xylem pit membranes and disintegrated primary walls. Examination of sections from drought-stressed plants revealed a significant decrease in the levels of labeling. In these samples, only a few scattered gold particles were detected in the same areas. In the leaf tissues of plants that had been rewatered for 3 d following an 8-d drought stress, the labeling pattern was similar to that of the regularly watered plants. To our knowledge, PTGRP is the first drought-regulated protein that has been precisely localized in the cell wall.
