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
key messageThe VaBAM3 cloned from Vitis amurensis can enhance the cold tolerance of overexpressed plants, but VaBAM3 knock out by CRISPR/Cas9 system weakened grape callus cold tolerance. In grape production, extreme cold conditions can seriously threaten plant survival and fruit quality. Regulation of starch content by β-amylase (BAM, EC: 3.2.1.2) contributes to cold tolerance in plants. In this study, we cloned the VaBAM3 gene from an extremely cold-tolerant grape, Vitis amurensis, and overexpressed it in tomato and Arabidopsis plants, as well as in grape callus for functional characterization. After exposure to cold stress, leaf wilting in the VaBAM3-overexpressing tomato plants was slightly less pronounced than that in wild-type tomato plants, and these plants were characterized by a significant accumulation of autophagosomes. Additionally, the VaBAM3-overexpressing Arabidopsis plants had a higher freezing tolerance than the wild-type counterparts. Under cold stress conditions, the activities of total amylase, BAM, peroxidase, superoxide dismutase, and catalase in VaBAM3-overexpressing plants were significantly higher than those in the corresponding wild-type plants. Furthermore, sucrose, glucose, and fructose contents in these lines were similarly significantly higher, whereas starch contents were reduced in comparison to the levels in the wild-type plants. Furthermore, we detected high CBF and COR gene expression levels in cold-stressed VaBAM3-overexpressing plants. Compared with those in VaBAM3-overexpressing grape callus, the aforementioned indicators tended to change in the opposite direction in grape callus with silenced VaBAM3. Collectively, our findings indicate that heterologous overexpression of VaBAM3 enhanced cold tolerance of plants by promoting the accumulation of soluble sugars and scavenging of excessive reactive oxygen species. These findings provide a theoretical basis for the cultivation of cold-resistant grape and support creation of germplasm resources for this purpose.
