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 weedy crucifer species Thlaspi arvense has the ability to acclimate to lower temperatures than Arabidopsis thaliana and the related crop species, Brassica napus. As a step towards understanding the genetic basis for this enhanced low temperature response, we isolated and sequenced 8.7 kb of genomic DNA encompassing the T. arvense CBF locus. CBF is a transcription factor believed to play a pivotal role in the development of plant freezing tolerance. Sequence analysis revealed that T. arvense contains a single copy of CBF, whereas the co-linear, homologous region in A. thaliana contains three tandem copies. Genes that flank CBF in A. thaliana are also present in a co-linear arrangement in T. arvense. Comparative sequence alignment also revealed the presence of conserved sequence blocks between T. arvense and A. thaliana promoter regions. The expression of T. arvense CBF responds rapidly to low temperature but not demonstrably to ABA, dehydration or high salt, which is comparable to that of the A. thaliana CBF genes. Over-expression of Ta-CBF in transgenic A. thaliana resulted in the development of constitutive freezing tolerance, comparable to that of cold acclimated A. thaliana.
