Starch metabolism in guard cells: At the intersection of environmental stimuli and stomatal movement.
Review in Plant physiology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Starch metabolism in guard cells plays a central role in regulating stomatal movement in response to light, elevated ambient CO2 and potentially other abiotic and biotic factors. Here, we discuss how various guard cell signal transduction pathways converge to promote rearrangements in guard cell starch metabolism for efficient stomatal responses, an essential physiological process that sustains plant productivity and stress tolerance. We suggest manipulation of guard cell starch dynamics as a previously overlooked strategy to improve stomatal behavior under changing environmental conditions.
