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

In order to construct transgenic rice plant with an introduced oryzacystatin (OC)-β-glucuronidase (GUS) fusion gene, we first introduced it into rice protoplasts by electroporation, together with a marker gene conferring hygromycinresistance (pUC-HPH). In a transient assay using the transfected protoplasts, both OC and GUS activities were detected. The GUS activity was higher when the OC-GUS fusion protein was expressed than when only a single GUS protein was expressed. Next, to isolate stable transformants, hygromycin-resistant calli were selected. Forty one out of 116 hygromycin-resistant calli expressed a 2.2 kb mRNA transcribed from the chimeric gene and their extracts exhibited the activities of both OC and GUS. Finally, the transgenic calli were regenerated into rice plants whose tissues (leaves, roots and seeds) exhibited GUS activity probably derived from the fusion protein.
