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

In this work, the formation of the virtual lateral root (VLR) is shown. The VLR is formed using the 2D simulation model of growth and cell divisions based on the concept of growth tensor, specified for radish. Growth is generated by the field of growth rates of an unsteady type (GT field). Principal directions of growth (PDGs) are assumed to define the orientation of cell divisions. Temporal sequences of the VLR formation are a result of an application of the GT field to the polygon meshwork representing cell pattern of already initiated primordium. The computer-generated lateral root (LR) develops realistically, and its cell pattern is vivid and similar to that observed in anatomical sections. The real and virtual LRs show similar cellular organization, both originate from a small group of cells situated in two-cell layers of the pericycle and both layers are engaged in the LR development. The LR formation seems to be controlled at the tensor level and individual cells presumably detect PDGs and obey them in the course of the cell divisions. PDGs are postulated to affect the cellular organization of the LR. Using the method of computer simulations, cellular aspects of the LR morphogenesis are discussed.
