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

Acoustic transduction by plants has been proposed as a mechanism to enable just-in-time up-regulation of metabolically expensive defensive compounds. Although the mechanisms by which this "hearing" occurs are unknown, mechanosensation by elongated plant hair cells known as trichomes is suspected. To evaluate this possibility, we developed a theoretical model to evaluate the acoustic radiation force that an elongated cylinder can receive in response to sounds emitted by animals, including insect herbivores, and applied it to the long, cylindrical stem trichomes of the tomato plant Solanum lycopersicum. Based on perturbation theory and validated by finite element simulations, the model quantifies the effects of viscosity and frequency on this acoustic radiation force. Results suggest that acoustic emissions from certain animals, including insect herbivores, may produce acoustic radiation force sufficient to trigger stretch-activated ion channels.
