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

key messageNtRAV4 is a nucleus-localised protein and no self-activation effect. ntrav4 mutants maintain the steady state of the ROS system under drought stress by enhancing antioxidant capacity and defence system. The APETALA2/ethylene response factor (AP2/ERF) transcription factor (TF) family plays an important role in plant responses to environmental stresses. In this study, we identified a novel NtRAV4 TF, a member of RAV subfamily among AP2/ERF gene family, which have AP2 and B3 domain in its N- and C-terminus, respectively. Subcellular localisation and self-activation activity analysis revealed that NtRAV4 localised in the nucleus and had no self-activation effect. The overexpression and gene editing vectors of NtRAV4 were constructed by homologous recombination and CRISPR/Cas9 gene editing methods, and transformed into tobacco by agrobacterium-mediated method. ntrav4 led to the appearance of termination codon in advance and lacked the unique B3 domain of RAV subfamily protein. Further analysis displayed that knockout of the NtRAV4 in tobacco increased drought tolerance with high relative water content, accompanied by reduced stomatal aperture, density, and stomatal opening ratio compared to overexpression lines and WT. Moreover, ntrav4 knockout plants also exhibited increased osmotic tolerance with low malondialdehyde (MDA) and ion leakage (EL), less accumulation of O
