Plant lipid rafts: fluctuat nec mergitur.
Article in Plant signaling & behavior, 2007. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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.
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
Lipid rafts in plasma membranes are hypothesized to play key roles in many cellular processes including signal transduction, membrane trafficking and entry of pathogens. We recently documented the biochemical characterization of lipid rafts, isolated as detergent-insoluble membranes, from Medicago truncatula root plasma membranes. We evidenced that the plant-specific lipid steryl-conjugates are among the main lipids of rafts together with free sterols and sphingolipids. An extensive proteomic analysis showed the presence of a specific set of proteins common to other lipid rafts, plus the presence of a redox system around a cytochrome b(561) not previously identified in lipid rafts of either plants or animals. Here, we discuss the similarities and differences between the lipids and proteins of plant and animal lipid rafts. Moreover we describe the potential biochemical functioning of the M. truncatula root lipid raft redox proteins and question whether they may play a physiological role in legume-symbiont interactions.
