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 roots show growth cessation as a primary response to mechanical stress. To clarify the molecular basis of this response, we have previously established an assay system to monitor the root growth response of Arabidopsis seedlings to mechanical stimuli using dialysis membrane-covered agar media. Here we examined the effect of plant hormones and their related molecules on this response. Amino-cyclopropane carboxylate, a precursor of ethylene, remarkably enhanced the growth reduction while silver ions, which block ethylene perception, nullified the response. Furthermore, salicylic acid, which inhibits ethylene biosynthesis, alleviated the root growth reduction, whereas methyl jasmonate had no apparent effect on the response. These results suggest that the root-growth cessation observed in response to mechanical stress involves ethylene signaling; however, this response may be independent from the pathway that integrates signals from ethylene and jasmonate.
