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

Pathogenic fungi represent one of the major biotic stresses for soybean production across the world. Sclerotinia sclerotiorum, the causal agent of Sclerotinia stem rot, is a devastating fungal pathogen that is responsible for significant yield losses in soybean. In this study, the chitinase gene CmCH1, from the mycoparasitic fungus Coniothyrium minitans, which infects a range of ascomycetous sclerotia, including S. sclerotiorum and S. minor, was introduced into soybean. Transgenic plants expressing CmCH1 showed higher resistance to S. sclerotiorum infection, with significantly reduced lesion sizes in both detached stem and leaf assays, compared to the non-transformed control. Increased hydrogen peroxide content and activities of defense-responsive enzymes, such as peroxidase, superoxide dismutase, phenylalanine ammonia lyase, and polyphenoloxidase were also observed at the infection sites in the transgenic plants inoculated with S. sclerotiorum. Consistent with the role of chitinases in inducing downstream defense responses by the release of elicitors, several defense-related genes, such as GmNPR2, GmSGT-1, GmRAR1, GmPR1, GmPR3, GmPR12, GmPAL, GmAOS, GmPPO, were also significantly upregulated in the CmCH1-expressing soybean after inoculation. Collectively, our results demonstrate that overexpression of CmCH1 led to increased accumulation of H
