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

Cystathionine-β-synthase (CBS) domain-containing proteins (CDCPs) constitute a large family in plants, and members of this family have been implicated in a variety of biological processes. However, the precise functions and the underlying mechanisms of most members of this family in plants remain to be elucidated. CBSDUF proteins belong to the CDCP superfamily, which contains one domain of unknown function (DUF21) and an N terminus that is adjacent to two intracellular CBS domains. In this study, a comprehensive genome database analysis of soybean was performed to investigate the role(s) of these CBSDUFs and to explore their nomenclature, classification, chromosomal distribution, exon-intron organization, protein structure, and phylogenetic relationships; the analysis identified a total of 18 putative CBSDUF genes. Using specific protein domains and phylogenetic analysis, the CBSDUF gene family was subdivided into eight groups. The soybean CBSDUF genes showed an uneven distribution on 12 chromosomes of Glycine max. RNA-seq transcriptome data from different tissues in public databases revealed tissue-specific and differential expression profiles of the GmCBSDUFs, and qPCR analysis revealed that certain groups of soybean CBSDUFs are likely involved in specific stress responses. In addition, GmCBSDUF3 transgenic Arabidopsis was subjected to phenotypic analysis under NaCl, PEG, and ABA stress treatments. The overexpression of GmCBSDUF3 could enhance tolerance to drought and salt stress in Arabidopsis. This study presents a first comprehensive look at soybean CBSDUF proteins and provides valuable resources for functionally elucidating this protein subgroup within the CBS domain-containing protein family.
