Effect of temperature conditioning on chilling injury of cucumber cotyledons: possible role of abscisic Acid and heat shock proteins.

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
Endogenous abscisic acid levels and induced heat shock proteins were measured in tissue exposed for 6 hours to temperatures that reduced their subsequent chilling sensitivity. One-centimeter discs excised from fully expanded cotyledons of 11-day-old seedlings of cucumber (Cucumis sativus L., cv Poinsett 76) were exposed to 12.5 or 37 degrees C for 6 hours followed by 4 days at 2.5 or 12.5 degrees C. Ion leakage, a qualitative indicator of chilling injury, increased after 2 to 3 day exposure to 2.5 degrees C, but not to 12.5 degrees C, a nonchilling temperature. Exposure to 37 degrees C before chilling significantly reduced the rate of ion leakage by about 60% compared to tissue exposed to 12.5 degrees C before chilling, but slightly increased leakage compared to tissue exposed to 12.5 or 37 degrees C and held at the nonchilling temperature of 12.5 degrees C. There was no relationship between abscisic acid content following exposure to 12.5 or 37 degrees C and chilling tolerance. Five heat shock proteins, with apparent molecular mass of 25, 38, 50, 70, and 80 kilodaltons, were induced by exposure to 37 or 42 degrees C for 6 hours, and their appearance coincided with increased chilling resistance. Heat shock treatments reduced the synthesis of three proteins with apparent molecular mass of 14, 17, and 43 kilodaltons. Induction of heat shock proteins could be a possible cause of reduced chilling injury in tissue exposed to 37 or 42 degrees C.
