Analyzing the regulatory role of heat shock transcription factors in plant heat stress tolerance: a brief appraisal.
Review in Molecular biology reports, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 50 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
An increase in ambient temperature throughout the twenty-first century has been described as a "worldwide threat" for crop production. Due to their sessile lifestyles, plants have evolved highly sophisticated and complex heat stress response (HSR) mechanisms to respond to higher temperatures. The HSR allows plants to minimize the damages caused by heat stress (HS), thus enabling cellular protection. HSR is crucial for their lifecycle and yield, particularly for plants grown in the field. At the cellular level, HSR involves the production of heat shock proteins (HSPs) and other stress-responsive proteins to counter the negative effects of HS. The expression of most HSPs is transcriptionally regulated by heat shock transcription factors (HSFs). HSFs are a group of evolutionary conserved regulatory proteins present in all eukaryotes and regulate various stress responses and biological processes in plants. In recent years, significant progress has been made in deciphering the complex regulatory network of HSFs, and several HSFs not only from model plants but also from major crops have been functionally characterized. Therefore, this review explores the progress made in this fascinating research area and debates the further potential to breed thermotolerant crop cultivars through the modulation of HSF networks. Furthermore, we discussed the role of HSFs in plant HS tolerance in a class-specific manner and shed light on their functional diversity, which is evident from their mode of action. Additionally, some research gaps have been highlighted concerning class-specific manners.
