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

An expressed sequence tag (EST) analysis approach was undertaken to identify major genes involved in cold acclimation of Rhododendron, a broad-leaf, woody evergreen species. Two cDNA libraries were constructed, one from winter-collected (cold-acclimated, CA; leaf freezing tolerance -53 degrees C) leaves, and the other from summer-collected (non-acclimated, NA; leaf freezing tolerance -7 degrees C) leaves of field-grown Rhododendron catawbiense plants. A total of 862 5'-end high-quality ESTs were generated by sequencing cDNA clones from the two libraries (423 from CA and 439 from NA library). Only about 6.3% of assembled unique transcripts were shared between the libraries, suggesting remarkable differences in gene expression between CA and NA leaves. Analysis of the relative frequency at which specific cDNAs were picked from each library indicated that four genes or gene families were highly abundant in the CA library including early light-induced proteins (ELIP), dehydrins/late embryogenesis abundant proteins (LEA), cytochrome P450, and beta-amylase. Similarly, seven genes or gene families were highly abundant in the NA library and included chlorophyll a/b-binding protein, NADH dehydrogenase subunit I, plastidic aldolase, and serine:glyoxylate aminotransferase, among others. Northern blot analyses for seven selected abundant genes confirmed their preferential expression in either CA or NA leaf tissues. Our results suggest that osmotic regulation, desiccation tolerance, photoinhibition tolerance, and photosynthesis adjustment are some of the key components of cold adaptation in Rhododendron.
