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

Rose is an economically important flowering plant that holds an essential place in cut flower, medicinal, and aromatic industries. The presence of prickles, epidermal outgrowths resembling trichomes, on rose is highly undesirable as these make harvesting and transportation difficult. Attempts were made for generating rose varieties lacking prickles via breeding and natural selections; however, these approaches obtained only chimeric and genetically unstable prickle-less mutants. The alternative way to get rid of prickles is via genetic manipulations, but the molecular mechanisms of prickle initiation and development in rose are almost unexplored. Therefore, the present study was carried out to understand the morphological, molecular, and correlated metabolic changes underlining prickle morphogenesis in a prickle-bearing SIGNIFICANCE STATEMENT: Prickles, the vasculature less epidermal outgrowths resembling trichomes, are defense organs protecting plants against herbivory. Despite biological significance, the mechanism of prickle morphogenesis remains obscure. Here, we show that like trichomes, prickles accumulate secondary metabolites, especially lignin and flavonoids, during morphogenesis. Cognate transcriptome analysis demonstrated that upregulation of a hormone-regulated transcriptional activation-inhibition network, known to govern trichome morphogenesis, likely triggers the differentiation of epidermal cells to outgrow into prickle.
