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

The function of ASR (ABA [abscisic acid]-, stress-, and ripening-induced) proteins remains unknown. A grape ASR, VvMSA, was isolated by means of a yeast one-hybrid approach using as a target the proximal promoter of a grape putative monosaccharide transporter (VvHT1). This promoter contains two sugar boxes, and its activity is induced by sucrose and glucose. VvMSA and VvHT1 share similar patterns of expression during the ripening of grape. Both genes are inducible by sucrose in grape berry cell culture, and sugar induction of VvMSA is enhanced strongly by ABA. These data suggest that VvMSA is involved in a common transduction pathway of sugar and ABA signaling. Gel-shift assays demonstrate a specific binding of VvMSA to the 160-bp fragment of the VvHT1 promoter and more precisely to two sugar-responsive elements present in this target. The positive regulation of VvHT1 promoter activity by VvMSA also is shown in planta by coexpression experiments. The nuclear localization of the yellow fluorescent protein-VvMSA fusion protein and the functionality of the VvMSA nuclear localization signal are demonstrated. Thus, a biological function is ascribed to an ASR protein. VvMSA acts as part of a transcription-regulating complex involved in sugar and ABA signaling.
