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

Myo-inositol monophosphatase (IMP) catalyzes the dephosphorylation of myo-inositol 3-phosphate in the last step of myo-inositol biosynthesis. IMP is also important in phosphate metabolism and is required for the biosynthesis of cell wall polysaccharides, phytic acid, and phosphatidylinositol. In Arabidopsis, IMP is encoded by VTC4. There are, however, two additional IMP candidate genes, IMPL1 and IMPL2, which have not yet been elucidated. In our genetic studies of Arabidopsis IMP genes, only the loss-of-function mutant impl2 showed embryonic lethality at the globular stage. All IMP genes were expressed in a similar manner both in the vegetative and reproductive organs. In developing seeds, expression of IMP genes was not coupled with the expression of the genes encoding myo-inositol phosphate synthases, which supply the substrate for IMPs in the de novo synthesis pathway. Instead, expression of IMP genes was correlated with expression of the gene for myo-inositol polyphosphate 1-phosphatase (SAL1), which is involved in the myo-inositol salvage pathway, suggesting a possible salvage pathway role in seed development. Moreover, the partial rescue of the impl2 phenotype by histidine application implies that IMPL2 is also involved in histidine biosynthesis during embryo development.
