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

Auxin and brassinosteroids (BRs) are two major growth-promoting phytohormones that shape hypocotyl elongation; however, the cross-talk between auxin and BR in this process is not fully understood. In this study, we found that auxin-induced hypocotyl elongation is dependent on brassinazole-resistant 1 (BZR1), a core BR signaling component. Auxin promotes BZR1 nuclear accumulation in hypocotyl cells, a process dependent on mitogen-activated protein kinase 3 (MPK3) and MPK6, which are both activated by auxin and whose encoding genes are highly expressed in hypocotyls. We determined that MPK3/MPK6 phosphorylate and reduce the protein stability of general regulatory factor 4 (GRF4), a member of the 14-3-3 family of proteins that retain BZR1 in the cytoplasm. In summary, this study reveals the molecular mechanism by which auxin promotes hypocotyl elongation by enhancing BZR1 nuclear accumulation via MPK3/MPK6-regulated GRF4 protein stability.
