Implications of a zinc uptake and transport model.
Article in Plant signaling & behavior, 2013. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
While physicists regularly use mathematical equations to describe natural phenomena, mathematical modeling of biological systems is still not well established and is hampered by communication barriers between experimental and theoretical biologists. In a recent study we developed a mathematical model of zinc uptake and radial transport in Arabidopsis thaliana roots. By refraining from writing many equations in the main text and confining the derivation of formulas to a supplemental file, we attempted to reach both experimentalists and theoreticians likewise. Here, we give a short summary of our results on the accumulation pattern of zinc and the importance of transporter regulation, water flow and geometry. For a better understanding of the dynamics of adaptation to changes in external conditions, we plead for more detailed and frequent measurements. As a new aspect, we analyzed the effect of buffering. Simulations indicate that it dampens oscillations and may therefore play a key role in zinc homeostasis.
