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
Members of a novel Master family of class II transposons were identified in the carrot genome. Two elements, 2.5 kb long DcMaster1 and 4.4 kb long DcMaster-a, are characterized by 22 bp imperfect terminal inverted repeats and by 3 bp target site duplications. GenBank search revealed that related elements are also present in Medicago truncatula, including a 5.1 kb element MtMaster-a. Both DcMaster-a and MtMaster-a contain open reading frames encoding for putative transposases with the complete DDE domain typical for plant class II transposable elements belonging to PIF/Harbinger superfamily, where the Master elements form a distinct group. Less than 10 copies of the DcMaster element containing the DDE domain are present in genomes of carrot and other Apiaceae, but more copies with internal deletions or insertions may occur. DcMaster elements were associated with putative coding regions in 8 of 14 identified insertion sites. PCR amplification of carrot genomic DNA using a primer complementary to TIRs of DcMaster gave products < 400 bp in size. We speculate that these may all represent a MITE-like family of transposable elements that we named Krak, present in the carrot genome in at least 3,600 copies.
