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

Angiosperms germinated in the dark develop etioplasts, the chloroplast precursors, in cotyledon cells. Etioplasts contain lattice membrane structures called prolamellar bodies (PLBs) and lamellar prothylakoids as internal membrane systems. PLBs accumulate the chlorophyll intermediate protochlorophyllide (Pchlide) in a complex with NADPH and light-dependent NADPH:Pchlide oxidoreductase (LPOR). Two galactolipids, monogalactosyldiacylglycerol and digalactosyldiacylglycerol (DGDG), are major constituents of etioplast membranes. We previously reported that monogalactosyldiacylglycerol facilitates the synthesis of Pchlide and the formation of the Pchlide-LPOR-NADPH complex in etioplasts, but the importance of DGDG in etioplasts is still unknown. To determine the role of DGDG in etioplast development and functions, we characterized a knockout mutant (
