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

Homeobox genes encode transcriptional regulators that control development in multicellular eukaryotes. In plants, post-embryonic shoot growth relies on the activity of indeterminate cell populations termed shoot meristems, within which members of the class-1 KNOX sub-family of homeobox genes are expressed. KNOX genes are differentially required for meristem development and function to inhibit cell expansion and differentiation associated with organogenesis. Mechanisms must therefore be employed to prevent KNOX gene expression in developing lateral organs such as leaves. This review focuses on the expression patterns, meristematic functions and regulation of KNOX genes, and how the activities of these genes are integrated within the framework of pathways that control plant development.
