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

Withania somnifera owing to its strong and remarkable stress tolerance property is a reliable candidate for the determination of genes involved in mechanism of adaption/tolerance of various stress conditions. 187 AP2/ERF gene related transcripts (GRTs) were identified during comprehensive search in W. somnifera transcriptome repertoire. Major hits in homology search were observed from the model plant Arabidopsis and members of Solanaceae family. Cloning, expression analysis of the gene and genetic transient transformation with the gene (WsAP2) were performed to predict its functional role in planta. Enhanced expression of some of the pathway genes for terpenoid biosynthesis was observed in transformed tissues in comparison to the control tissues. It is speculated that WsAP2 gene crucially regulates the expression of GGPPS gene in addition to the regulation of other important genes of terpenoid pathway via induction of expression of other genes such as HMGR, CAS, DXS and DXR. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report representing detailed study of AP2/ERF gene family in W. somnifera. It is also suggested from the study that gene might have role in eliciting responses to combat stress and attribute the strong stress tolerant property associated with the plant.
