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

Quantitative real-time PCR (RT-qPCR) is a reliable method for assessing gene expression, provided that suitable reference genes are included to normalize the data. The stability of expression of eight potential reference genes, namely, tubulin (alpha-2,4 tubulin), actin, EF1 α (elongation factor 1 α), UBC (ubiquitin C), GAPDH (glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase), psaA (photosynthesis-related plastid gene representing photosystem I), PP2Acs (catalytic subunit of protein phosphatase 2A), and PGK (phosphoglycerate kinase), was assessed in chrysanthemum plants subjected to aphid infestation, heat stress or waterlogging stress using geNorm software. The widely used reference gene EF1 α performed well for aphid infested plants but poorly for waterlogged ones. The catalytic subunit of protein phosphatase 2A (PP2Acs) was the best performing one during heat and waterlogging stress, but was the worst during aphid infestation. The commonly used reference gene actin was generally the least stable of the set. No single gene was suitable for normalization on its own. The choice of reference gene(s) is an important factor in gene expression studies based on RT-qPCR.
