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

Nucleolin is one of the most abundant protein in the nucleolus and is a multifunctional protein involved in different steps of ribosome biogenesis. In contrast to animals and yeast, the genome of the model plant Arabidopsis thaliana encodes two nucleolin-like proteins, AtNUC-L1 and AtNUC-L2. However, only the AtNUC-L1 gene is ubiquitously expressed in normal growth conditions. Disruption of this AtNUC-L1 gene leads to severe plant growth and development defects. AtNUC-L1 is localized in the nucleolus, mainly in the dense fibrillar component. Absence of this protein in Atnuc-L1 plants induces nucleolar disorganization, nucleolus organizer region decondensation, and affects the accumulation levels of pre-rRNA precursors. Remarkably, in Atnuc-L1 plants the AtNUC-L2 gene is activated, suggesting that AtNUC-L2 might rescue, at least partially, the loss of AtNUC-L1. This work is the first description of a higher eukaryotic organism with a disrupted nucleolin-like gene and defines a new role for nucleolin in nucleolus structure and rDNA chromatin organization.
