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

In this viewpoint, the usages of terms for progenitor cells to meiosis and gametogenesis are discussed. Terms for 2 types of germ cells, i.e. "diploid germ cells" and "haploid germ cells" were suggested to replace "archesporial cells" and "generative cells," respectively, in plant developmental research. This suggestion was based on 2 newly proposed concepts, the "sexual reproduction cycle" for eukaryotes, and a "double-ring mode" of plant developmental program.
