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
Ethylene response factor (ERF) proteins play important roles in regulating plant stress response and development. Our previous studies have shown that JERF3 activates the expression of oxidative stress responsive genes in transgenic tobacco and enhances tolerance to salt, drought, and freezing, indicating that JERF3 is a very important transcriptional regulator in dicot plants. In the study reported here, we further addressed the regulatory function of JERF3 in a monocot, rice, by generating transgenic rice plants overexpressing JERF3 and comparing these with non-transgenic rice plants for physiological and molecular alterations and tolerance to drought and osmotic stresses. Growth and development under normal growth conditions were the same in both the transgenic and non-transgenic rice. Interestingly, the JERF3 transgenic plants exhibited better stress tolerance, whereas the non-transgenic rice seedlings showed serious stress symptoms and ultimately died after the drought and osmotic treatments. Biochemical analysis revealed that the contents of soluble sugars and proline were significantly increased in transgenic rice compared with non-transgenic plants under dehydration conditions. In addition, overexpression of JERF3 in rice led to the up-regulated expression of two OsP5CS genes in response to drought treatment compared with their expression in non-transgenic plants. JERF3 also activated the expression of stress-responsive genes, including WCOR413-like, OsEnol, and OsSPDS2, in transgenic rice under normal growth conditions. These data suggest that JERF3 plays important roles in transgenic rice and that it is likely to be beneficial in engineering crop plants with improved tolerance to drought and osmotic stresses.
