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

Plant NLR genes encode sensitive immune receptors that can mediate the specific recognition of pathogen avirulence effectors and activate a strong defence response, termed effector-triggered immunity. The expression of NLRs requires strict regulation, as their ability to trigger immunity is dependent on their dose, and overexpression of NLRs results in autoimmunity and massive fitness costs. An elaborate interplay of different mechanisms controlling NLR transcript levels allows plants to maximize their defence capacity, whilst limiting negative impact on their fitness. Global suppression of NLR transcripts may be a prerequisite for the fast evolution of new NLR variants and the expansion of this gene family. Here, we summarize recent progress made towards a comprehensive understanding of NLR transcript-level expression control. Multiple mechanistic steps, including transcription as well as co-/post-transcriptional processing and transcript turn-over, contribute to balanced base levels of NLR transcripts and allow for dynamic adjustments to defence situations.
