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

Calcium ion (Ca(2+)) is one of the very important ubiquitous intracellular second messenger molecules involved in many signal transduction pathways in plants. The cytosolic free Ca(2+) concentration ([Ca(2+)](cyt)) have been found to increased in response to many physiological stimuli such as light, touch, pathogenic elicitor, plant hormones and abiotic stresses including high salinity, cold and drought. This Ca(2+) spikes normally result from two opposing reactions, Ca(2+) influx through channels or Ca(2+) efflux through pumps. The removal of Ca(2+) from the cytosol against its electrochemical gradient to either the apoplast or to intracellular organelles requires energized 'active' transport. Ca(2+)-ATPases and H(+)/Ca(2+) antiporters are the key proteins catalyzing this movement. The increased level of Ca(2+) is recognised by some Ca(2+)-sensors or calcium-binding proteins, which can activate many calcium dependent protein kinases. These kinases regulate the function of many genes including stress responsive genes, resulted in the phenotypic response of stress tolerance. Calcium signaling is also involved in the regulation of cell cycle progression in response to abiotic stress. The regulation of gene expression by cellular calcium is also crucial for plant defense against various stresses. However, the number of genes known to respond to specific transient calcium signals is limited. This review article describes several aspects of calcium signaling such as Ca(2+) requiremant and its role in plants, Ca(2+) transporters, Ca(2+)-ATPases, H(+)/ Ca(2+)-antiporter, Ca(2+)-signature, Ca(2+)-memory and various Ca(2+)-binding proteins (with and without EF hand).
