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

During postgerminative seedling establishment, reserves stored during seed filling are mobilized to provide energy and carbon for the growing seedling until autotrophic growth is possible. A plastid isoform of triose phosphate isomerase (pdTPI) plays a crucial role in this transition from heterotrophic to autotrophic growth. A T-DNA insertion in Arabidopsis thaliana pdTPI resulted in a fivefold reduction in transcript, reduced TPI activity, and a severely stunted and chlorotic seedling that accumulated dihydroxyacetone phosphate (DHAP), glycerol, and glycerol-3-phosphate. Methylglyoxal (MG), a by-product of DHAP, also accumulated in the pdtpi mutant. Wild-type seed sown in the presence of any of these four metabolites resulted in a phenocopy of this pdtpi mutant, although MG and DHAP were the most effective based upon dosage. These metabolites (except MG) are by-products of triacylglycerol mobilization and precursors for glycerolipid synthesis, suggesting that lipid metabolism may also be affected. Lipid profiling revealed lower monogalactosyl but higher digalactosyl lipids. It is unclear whether the change in lipid composition is a direct or indirect consequence of the pdtpi mutation, as ribulose-1,5-bis-phosphate carboxylase/oxygenase expression, chloroplast morphology, and starch synthesis are also defective in this mutant. We propose that DHAP and MG accumulation in developing plastids delays the transition from heterotrophic to autotrophic growth, possibly due to MG toxicity.
