Transcriptomic analysis reveals candidate genes for male sterility in
Article in PeerJ, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
backgroundThe phenomenon of male sterility widely occurs in
methodThe microstructures of male sterile flower buds and male fertile flower buds were observed by paraffin section. Transcriptome sequencing was used to screen genes related to male sterility in
resultsAnther development was divided into the sporogenous cell stage, tetrad stage, microspore stage, and pollen maturity stage. Compared with male fertile flower buds, in the microspore stage, the pollen sac wall tissue in the male sterile flower buds showed no signs of degeneration. In the pollen maturity stage, the tapetum and middle layer were not fully degraded, and anther development stopped. Therefore, the microspore stage was the key stage for anther abortion , and the pollen maturity stage was the post stage for anther abortion. A total of 4,108 differentially expressed genes were identified by transcriptome analysis. Among them, 1,899 were up-regulated, and 2,209 were down-regulated in the transcriptome of male sterile flower buds. We found that "protein kinase activity", "apoptosis process", "calcium binding", "cell death", "cytochrome c oxidase activity", "aspartate peptidase activity", "cysteine peptidase activity" and other biological pathways such as "starch and sucrose metabolism" and "proteasome" were closely related to male sterility in
