A model of Ustilago maydis leaf tumor metabolism.
Article in Plant signaling & behavior, 2010. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
Extensive progress has been made in the last years in unraveling molecular mechanisms of plant-pathogen interactions. Although the main research focus lies on defense and counter-defense mechanisms, some plant-pathogen interactions have been characterized on the physiological level. Only a few studies have focused on the nutrient acquisition strategies of phytopathogens. In a previous study, we analyzed how local infection of maize leaves by the tumor-inducing fungus Ustilago maydis affects whole plant physiology and were able to show that carbon and nitrogen assimilates are rerouted to the tumor. While the sink strength of infected emerging young leaves increases with tumor development, systemic source leaves exhibit elevated export of assimilates and delayed senescence to compensate for the altered sink-source balance. Here we provide new experimental data on the metabolization of these assimilates in the tumor and propose a model on their utilization in the infected tissue.
