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

Arabidopsis pumila, an annual ephemeral plant, plays important roles in preventing wind and sand erosion, water and soil conservation, and microhabitat improvement in the North of Xinjiang, China. Studies of adaptive mechanisms in harsh desert environments at the genetic and genomic levels can be used to more effectively develop and protect this species. The quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) method is one of the essential means to achieve these goals, and the selection of an appropriate reference gene is the prerequisite for qRT-PCR. In this study, 10 candidate reference genes were identified from the full-length transcriptome data of A. pumila, and their expression stabilities under four abiotic stresses (drought, heat, cold and salt) and in seven different tissues (roots, hypocotyl, cotyledon, leaves, stems, flowers and siliques) were evaluated with four programmes geNorm, NormFinder, Bestkeeper and RefFinder. Although the most stable reference genes were variable under different treatments using different software, comprehensive ranking revealed that UEP and HAF1 under drought stress, UBQ9 and GAPDH under heat stress, UBC35 and GAPDH under cold stress, GAPDH and ACT1 under salt stress, and ACT1 and GAPDH in different tissues were the most stable reference genes. Moreover, GAPDH and UBQ9 were the most suitable reference gene combinations for all samples. The expression pattern of the K
