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

Expansins are plant cell-wall loosening proteins involved in cell enlargement, adaptive responses to environmental stimuli, and various developmental processes. Although expansins have been characterized in many plant species, little is reported on this family in watermelon. In this study, 30 expansin genes in the watermelon genome (ClEXPs) were identified. These genes which were divided into four subfamilies (7 ClEXLAs, 2 ClEXLBs, 18 ClEXPAs, and 3 ClEXPBs) are unevenly distribute on 10 of 11 watermelon chromosomes. Chromosome mapping suggested that tandem duplication events may have played important roles in the expanding of watermelon expansins. Gene structure and motif identification revealed that same subfamily and subgroup have conserved gene structure and motif. Detection of
