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

This work aimed to design a synthetic salt-inducible promoter using a cis-engineering approach. The designed promoter (PS) comprises a minimal promoter sequence for basal-level expression and upstream cis-regulatory elements (CREs) from promoters of salinity-stress-induced genes. The copy number, spacer lengths, and locations of CREs were manually determined based on their occurrence within native promoters. The initial activity profile of the synthesized PS promoter in transiently transformed N. tabacum leaves shows a seven-fold, five-fold, and four-fold increase in reporter GUS activity under salt, drought, and abscisic acid stress, respectively, at the 24-h interval, compared to the constitutive CaMV35S promoter. Analysis of gus expression in stable Arabidopsis transformants showed that the PS promoter induces over a two-fold increase in expression under drought or abscisic acid stress and a five-fold increase under salt stress at 24- and 48-h intervals, compared to the CaMV35S promoter. The promoter PS exhibits higher and more sustained activity under salt, drought, and abscisic acid stress compared to the constitutive CaMV35S.
