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 messageSilencing SlAGL6 in tomato leads to fused sepal and green petal by influencing the expression of A-, B-class genes. AGAMOUS-LIKE6 (AGL6) lineage is an important clade MADS-box transcription factor and plays essential roles in various developmental programs especially in flower meristem and floral organ development. Here, we isolated a tomato AGL6 lineage gene SlAGL6 and successfully obtained several RNA interference (RNAi) lines. Silencing SlAGL6 led to abnormal fused sepals and light green petals with smaller size. The total chlorophyll content in transgenic petals increased and the morphology of epidermis cells altered. Further analysis showed that A-class gene MACROCALYX (MC) participating in sepal development and a NAC-domain gene GOBLET involving in boundary establishment were down-regulated in transgenic lines. In transgenic petals, two chlorophyll synthesis genes, Golden2-like1 (SlGLK1) and Golden2-like2 (SlGLK2), two photosystem-related genes, ribulose bisphosphate carboxylase small chain 3B (SlrbcS3B) and chlorophyll a/b-binding protein 7 (SlCab-7) were induced and three B-class genes TM6, TAP3 and SlGLO1 were repressed. These results suggest that SlAGL6 involves in tomato sepal and petal development.
