Symplastic signaling instructs cell division, cell expansion, and cell polarity in the ground tissue of Arabidopsis thaliana roots.

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
Cell-to-cell communication is essential for the development and patterning of multicellular organisms. In plants, plasmodesmata (PD) provide direct routes for intercellular signaling. However, the role that PD-mediated signaling plays in plant development has not been fully investigated. To gain a comprehensive view of the role that symplastic signaling plays in Arabidopsis thaliana, we have taken advantage of a synthetic allele of CALLOSE SYNTHASE3 (icals3m) that inducibly disrupts cell-to-cell communication specifically at PD. Our results show that loss of symplastic signaling to and from the endodermis has very significant effects on the root, including an increase in the number of cell layers in the root and a misspecification of stele cells, as well as ground tissue. Surprisingly, loss of endodermal signaling also results in a loss of anisotropic elongation in all cells within the root, similar to what is seen in radially swollen mutants. Our results suggest that symplastic signals to and from the endodermis are critical in the coordinated growth and development of the root.
