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

Isoprene emission protects plants from a variety of abiotic stresses. It has been hypothesized to do so by partitioning into cellular membranes, particularly the thylakoid membrane. At sufficiently high concentrations, this partitioning may alter the physical properties of membranes. As much as several per cent of carbon taken up in photosynthesis is re-emitted as isoprene but the concentration of isoprene in the thylakoid membrane of rapidly emitting plants has seldom been considered. In this study, the intramembrane concentration of isoprene in phosphatidylcholine liposomes equilibrated to a physiologically relevant gas phase concentration of 20 μL L(-1) isoprene was less than predicted by ab initio calculations based on the octanol-water partitioning coefficient of isoprene while the concentration in thylakoid membranes was more. However, the concentration in both systems was roughly two orders of magnitude lower than previously assumed. High concentrations of isoprene (2000 μL L(-1) gas phase) failed to alter the viscosity of phosphatidylcholine liposomes as measured with perylene, a molecular probe of membrane structure. These results strongly suggest that the physiological concentration of isoprene within the leaves of highly emitting plants is too low to affect the dynamics of thylakoid membrane acyl lipids. It is speculated that isoprene may bind to and modulate the dynamics of thylakoid embedded proteins.
