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 voltage-dependent anion channel (VDAC) is a major outer mitochondrial membrane protein. It is well documented that VDAC plays an important role in apoptosis, a kind of programmed cell death, in mammalian systems. However, little is known about the role of the plant counterpart during the process of plant-specific cell death such as pathogen-induced hypersensitive response. To address this issue, we isolated three VDAC full-length cDNAs (NtVDAC1-3) from Nicotiana tabacum. The deduced products, NtVDACs, share 78-85% identity and retain the conserved eukaryotic mitochondrial porin signature distal to their C-terminal regions. Mitochondrial localization of three NtVDACs in plant cells was confirmed via a green fluorescent protein fusion method. Then, we addressed the main issue concerning pathogenesis relation. The N. benthamiana orthologues of NtVDACs were upregulated by challenge with the non-host pathogen Pseudomonas cichorii, but not after challenge with the virulent pathogen P. syringae pv. tabaci. Both the pharmaceutical inhibition of VDAC and silencing of NbVDACs genes compromised the non-host resistance against P. cichorii, suggesting the involvement of VDACs in defense against non-host pathogen. Involvement of NbVDACs in Bax-mediated cell death was also verified using a similar approach.
