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
key messageAn ERF gene, LchERF , was cloned from L. chinense for the first time. Overexpression of LchERF conferred salt stress tolerance in transgenic tobacco lines during seed germination and vegetative growth. Ethylene-responsive transcription factors (ERFs) play important roles in tolerance to biotic and abiotic stresses by regulating the expression of stress-responsive genes. Although the ERF proteins involved in defense responses against biotic stresses have been extensively documented, the mechanisms by which ERF subfamily genes regulate plant responses to abiotic stresses are largely unknown. In this study, a novel ethylene-responsive transcription factor, named LchERF, was isolated from Lycium chinense (a salinity-resistant plant). Analysis of the LchERF-deduced protein sequence showed that it had a typical AP2/ERF domain and belonged to the B-3 subgroup of the ERF subfamily. The expression of LchERF was found to be tissue specific in L. chinense under normal conditions. Upon treatment with NaCl, polyethylene glycol (PEG) or ethephon (ET), transcript levels of LchERF rapidly increased in L. chinense. Overexpression of LchERF conferred salt stress tolerance in transgenic tobacco during seed germination and vegetative growth. Compared with control lines, LchERF-overexpressing plants showed higher chlorophyll and proline contents, and were associated with lower H2O2 content under salt stress. Overall, our results demonstrate that LchERF might play an important role in the regulation of plant responses to abiotic stresses and mediate various physiological pathways that enhance salt stress tolerance in plants.
