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

Cotton plant is one of the most important economic crops in the world which supplies natural fiber for textile industry. The crucial traits of cotton fiber quality are fiber length and strength, which are mostly determined by the fiber elongation stage. Annexins are assumed to be involved in regulating fiber elongation, but direct evidences remain elusive. Recently, we have investigated the activities of fiber-specific expressed annexins AnGb5/6 and their interacted proteins in cotton. AnGb5 and 6 can interact reciprocally to generate a protein macro-raft in cell membrane. This macro-raft is probably a stabilized scaffold for Actin1 organization. The actin assembling direction and density are correlated with AnGb6 gene expression and fiber expanding rate among three fiber length genotypes. These results suggest that annexins may act as the adaptor that linked fiber cell membrane to actin assembling. Due to the strong Ca (2+) and lipid binding ability of annexins, these results also indicate that annexins complex may function as an intermediate to receive Ca (2+) or lipid signals during fiber elongation.
