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
Ethylene biosynthesis in apple (Malus domestica) fruit can be suppressed by calcium ions (Ca2+) during storage; however, the underlying mechanisms are unclear. In this study, we identified the apple transcription factor MCM1-AGAMOUS-DEFICIENS-SRF5 (MdMADS5), which functions as a transcriptional activator of the ethylene biosynthesis-related gene 1-AMINOCYCLOPROPANE-1-CARBOXYLIC ACID SYNTHASE1 (MdACS1), a partner of the calcium sensor CALCIUM-DEPENDENT PROTEIN KINASES7 (MdCDPK7). Ca2+ promoted the MdCDPK7-mediated phosphorylation of MdMADS5, which resulted in the degradation of MdMADS5 via the 26S proteasome pathway. MdCDPK7 also phosphorylated 1-AMINOCYCLOPROPANE-1-CARBOXYLIC ACID OXIDASE1 (MdACO1), the key enzyme in ethylene biosynthesis, leading to MdACO1 degradation and inhibition of ethylene biosynthesis. Our results reveal that Ca2+/MdCDPK7-MdMADS5 and Ca2+/MdCDPK7-MdACO1 are involved in Ca2+-suppressed ethylene biosynthesis, which delays apple fruit ripening. These findings provide insights into fruit ripening, which may lead to the development of strategies for extending the shelf life of fruit.
