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

Alkaline stress is one of the severe abiotic stresses, which is not well studied so far, especially among cyanobacteria. To affirm the characteristics of alkaline stress and the subsequent adaptive responses in Arthrospira platensis NIES-39 and Arthrospira platensis PCC 7345, photosynthetic pigments, spectral properties of thylakoids, PSII and PSI activities, and pigment-protein profiles of thylakoids under different pH regimes were examined. The accessory pigments showed a pH-mediated sensitivity. The pigment-protein complexes of thylakoids are also affected, resulting in the altered fluorescence emission profile. At pH 11, a possible shift of the PBsome antenna complex from PSII to PSI is observed. PSII reaction center is found to be more susceptible to alkaline stress in comparison to the PSI. In Arthrospira platensis NIES-39 at pH 11, a drop of 68% in the oxygen evolution with a significant increase of PSI activity by 114% is recorded within 24 h of pH treatment. Alterations in the cellular ultrastructure of Arthrospira platensis NIES-39 at pH 11 were observed, along with the increased number of plastoglobules attached with the thylakoid membranes. Arthrospira platensis NIES-39 is more adaptable to pH variation than Arthrospira platensis PCC 7345.
