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

Embryonic suspensor in angiosperms is a short-lived structure that connects the embryo to surrounding maternal tissues, which is necessary for early embryogenesis. Timely degeneration via programed cell death is the most distinct feature of the suspensor during embryogenesis. Therefore, the molecular mechanism regulating suspensor cell death is worth in-depth study for embryonic development. However, this process can hardly be detected using conventional methods since early embryos are deeply embedded in the seed coats and inaccessible through traditional tissue section. Hence, it is necessary to develop a reliable protocol for terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase (TdT) dUTP Nick-End Labeling (TUNEL) analysis using limited living early embryos. Here, we provide a detailed protocol for the whole-mount detection of suspensor cell death using a TUNEL system in tobacco. This method is especially useful for the direct and rapid detection of the spatial-temporal characters of programed cell death during embryogenesis, as well as for the diminishment of the artifacts during material treatment by traditional methods.
