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

Despite increasing progress in the study of CK2 activity in plants, a clear understanding of its functional role remains elusive. The high pleiotropic nature of the enzyme, the fact that it is absolutely necessary to maintain life, and the existence of multiple isoforms have made it difficult to obtain loss-of-function mutants with which to study the impact of CK2 depletion in the organisms. To avoid all these difficulties, we have used a dominant-negative mutant approach, by constructing a CK2α kinase-inactive subunit (CKA3mut) that was cloned downstream of an inducible promoter. Stably transformed Arabidopsis plants showed that longtime inductions of the transgene were lethal, causing growth and development arrests and ultimately resulting in plant death. However, short-time inductions were not lethal and revealed broad phenotypical changes that uncovered novel functions of CK2 in plants. The high pleiotropy of CK2 was sustained by analysis of global transcript profiles that showed a huge number of genes affected, involved in a wide variety of cellular processes.
