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.
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
backgroundZygophyllum is an important medicinal plant, with notable properties such as resistance to salt, alkali, and drought, as well as tolerance of poor soils and shifting sand. However, the response mechanism of Zygophyllum spp. to abiotic stess were rarely studied.
resultsHere, we aimed to explore the salt-tolerance genes of Zygophyllum plants by transcriptomic and metabolic approaches. We chose Z. brachypterum, Z. obliquum and Z. fabago to screen for salt tolerant and sensitive species. Cytological observation showed that both the stem and leaf of Z. brachypterum were significantly thicker than those of Z. fabago. Then, we treated these three species with different concentrations of NaCl, and found that Z. brachypterum exhibited the highest salt tolerance (ST), while Z. fabago was the most sensitive to salt (SS). With the increase of salt concentration, the CAT, SOD and POD activity, as well as proline and chlorophyll content in SS decreased significantly more than in ST. After salt treatment, the proportion of open stomata in ST decreased significantly more than in SS, although there was no significant difference in stomatal number between the two species. Transcriptomic analysis identified a total of 11 overlapping differentially expressed genes (DEGs) in the leaves and roots of the ST and SS species after salt stress. Two branched-chain-amino-acid aminotransferase (BCAT) genes among the 11 DEGs, which were significantly enriched in pantothenate and CoA biosynthesis, as well as the valine, leucine and isoleucine biosynthesis pathways, were confirmed to be significantly induced by salt stress through qRT-PCR. Furthermore, overlapping differentially abundant metabolites showed that the pantothenate and CoA biosynthesis pathways were significantly enriched after salt stress, which was consistent with the KEGG pathways enriched according to transcriptomics.
conclusionsIn our study, transcriptomic and metabolomic analysis revealed that BCAT genes may affect the pantothenate and CoA biosynthesis pathway to regulate the salt tolerance of Zygophyllum species, which may constitute a newly identified signaling pathway through which plants respond to salt stress.
