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
Stomata are crucial valves coordinating the fixation of carbon dioxide by photosynthesis and water loss through leaf transpiration. Phytochrome interacting factors (PIFs) are negative regulators of red light responses that belong to the basic helix-loop-helix family of transcription factors. Here, we show that the rice (Oryza sativa) PIF family gene OsPIL15 acts as a negative regulator of stomatal aperture to control transpiration in rice. OsPIL15 reduces stomatal aperture by activating rice ABSCISIC ACID INSENSITIVE 5 (OsABI5), which encodes a critical positive regulator of ABSCISIC ACID (ABA) signaling in rice. Moreover, OsPIL15 interacts with the NIGT1/HRS1/HHO family transcription factor rice HRS1 HOMOLOG 3 (OsHHO3) to possibly enhance the regulation of stomatal aperture. Notably, we discovered that the maize (Zea mays) PIF family genes ZmPIF1 and ZmPIF3, which are homologous to OsPIL15, are also involved in the regulation of stomatal aperture in maize, indicating that PIF-mediated regulation of stomatal aperture may be conserved in the plant lineage. Our findings explain the molecular mechanism by which PIFs play a role in red-light-mediated stomatal opening, and demonstrate that PIFs regulate stomatal aperture by coordinating the red light and ABA signaling pathways.
