NPF transporters in synaptic-like vesicles control delivery of iron and copper to seeds.
Article in Science advances, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 23 papers.
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.
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
Accumulation of iron in seeds is essential for both plant reproduction and human nutrition. Transport of iron to seeds requires the chelator nicotianamine (NA) to prevent its precipitation in the plant vascular tissues. However, how NA is transported to the apoplast for forming metal-NA complexes remains unknown. Here, we report that two members of the nitrate/peptide transporter family, NAET1 and NAET2, function as NA transporters required for translocation of both iron and copper to seeds. We show that
