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

Nodule cultures are formed through an intermediate morphogenetic route that lies between organogenesis and somatic embryogenesis. Although well described in many species, different aspects of the morphological and histological development of nodules remain to be clarified. Based on their threatened status and high ornamental value, Billbergia alfonsi-joannis and Billbergia zebrina, two epiphytic bromeliad species endemic to the South American Atlantic Forest, were studied. Nodular cultures were induced to grow from nodal segments taken from etiolated seedlings grown in vitro for 12 weeks in the dark on MS medium supplemented with 1 μM TDZ. Samples were taken for analysis weekly over 8 weeks of growth and analyzed under light, transmission electron, and scanning electron microscopes. Morphological and histological analysis showed that nodular clusters originated from stem pericycles and consisted of a polycenter, cambial tissue, cortical parenchyma, and a covering tissue. The polycenter consisted of an organizational center dispersed in parenchymal tissue. Each organizational center was formed by a vascular system surrounded by a bundle sheath. A cambial tissue surrounded these polycenters, promoting the regeneration of new nodules and leading to the formation of buds and roots. Primary nodules could generate secondary nodules in a repetitive process. Thus, histological analysis revealed the origin and formation of nodular cultures. These new data will support the establishment of micropropagation protocols and regeneration on a large scale for these species.
