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

Metal-tolerance proteins (MTPs) are divalent cation transporters and play fundamental roles in plant metal tolerance and ion homeostasis. Despite that, a systematic investigation of MTPs in Cucurbitacea is still lacking. In this study, 142 MTPs were identified from 11 released genomes of 8 Cucurbitaceae species. They were phylogenetically separated into three clusters (Zn-cation diffusion facilitator proteins [CDFs], Fe/Zn-CDFs, and Mn-CDFs) and further subdivided into seven groups (G1, G5, G6, G7, G8, G9, and G12). Characterization analysis revealed that most MTPs were plasma membrane-located hydrophobic proteins. Motif and exon/intron analysis showed that members in the same group contained similar conserved motifs and gene structures. Moreover, 98 pairs of segmental-like duplication events were found. The nonsynonymous/synonymous substitution ratios between each pair were less than 1, implying that Cucurbitaceae MTPs were under purification selection. Expression profiling suggested that several MTP genes, such as CsCLMTP1, CmeMTP3, LsMTP3, and Cl97103MTP3, were constitutively expressed in corresponding Cucurbitaceae species, and their expression levels were not significantly altered by NaCl, drought, or pathogen infection. The expression patterns of cucumber MTP genes under Zn
