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

Maize shoot development progresses from non-pigmented meristematic cells at the base of the leaf to expanded and non-dividing green cells of the leaf blade. This transition is accompanied by the conversion of promitochondria and proplastids to their mature forms and massive fragmentation of both mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) and plastid DNA (ptDNA), collectively termed organellar DNA (orgDNA). We measured developmental changes in reactive oxygen species (ROS), which at high concentrations can lead to oxidative stress and DNA damage, as well as antioxidant agents and oxidative damage in orgDNA. Our plants were grown under normal, non-stressful conditions. Nonetheless, we found more oxidative damage in orgDNA from leaf than stalk tissues and higher levels of hydrogen peroxide, superoxide, and superoxide dismutase in leaf than stalk tissues and in light-grown compared to dark-grown leaves. In both mitochondria and plastids, activities of the antioxidant enzyme peroxidase were higher in stalk than in leaves and in dark-grown than light-grown leaves. In protoplasts, the amount of the small-molecule antioxidants, glutathione and ascorbic acid, and catalase activity were also higher in the stalk than in leaf tissue. The data suggest that the degree of oxidative stress in the organelles is lower in stalk than leaf and lower in dark than light growth conditions. We speculate that the damaged/fragmented orgDNA in leaves (but not the basal meristem) results from ROS signaling to the nucleus to stop delivering DNA repair proteins to mature organelles producing large amounts of ROS.
