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

A single-chain variable fragment antibody (scFv) against plumbagin (PL) accumulated the PL production in the hairy roots of Plumbago zeylanica. Recombinant Agrobacterium rhizogenes (ATCC 15834) containing an scFv gene against PL (PL-scFv) were obtained through triparental mating and transformed into P. zeylanica to induce PL-scFv protein in the hairy roots. Up to 40 μg recombinant PL-scFv were expressed per milligram of soluble protein in transgenic P. zeylanica hairy root cultures. The mean PL content obtained from transgenic hairy roots (12.24 μg/100 mg dry weight) exhibited 2.2 times higher than those obtained from wild-type (5.48 μg/100 mg dry weight). The high correlation between the PL-scFv expression level and PL content of the recombinant plants suggested that the PL biosynthesis pathway had been modulated by the expression of PL-scFv protein in the hairy roots of P. zeylanica.
