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

The phloem is an important conduit for the transport of signaling molecules including RNA. Phloem sap has served as a source of RNA to profile uncontaminated phloem transcriptomes but its collection is difficult in many species. Laser capture microdissection techniques offer a valuable alternative for isolating RNA from specific vascular cells. In potato (Solanum tuberosum L.), there are seven BEL1-like transcription factors expressed throughout the plant with diverse functions. The RNA of one of these, StBEL5, moves through the phloem from the leaf to stolon tips to regulate tuber formation. In this study, the presence of several BEL RNAs and one Knotted1-like RNA was determined in phloem cells collected by laser microdissection coupled to laser pressure catapulting (LMPC). Three fixatives were compared for their effect on cell morphology and RNA quality in transverse sections of stems of potato. For optimum tissue integrity and quality of RNA from potato stem sections, the best results were achieved using ethanol acetate as the fixative. In addition, the RT-PCR results demonstrated the presence of six out of seven of the StBEL RNAs and a potato Knox RNA in phloem cells.
