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
Cytokinins, which play crucial roles in shoot development, substantially affect grain yield. In rice, the OsRopGEF10-OsRAC3 module is associated with cytokinin signaling and crown root development. However, the effects of RopGEF-mediated cytokinin signaling on rice shoot development and grain yield remain unclear. In this study, we investigated the role of OsRopGEF10 in SAM development and the underlying mechanism. We showed that overexpression of OsRopGEF10 inhibited SAM and panicle development, leading to decreased grain yield. Intriguingly, the overexpression of a specific amino acid mutant of OsRopGEF10, designated gef10-W260S, was found to promote panicle development and grain yield. Further analysis using the BiFC assay revealed that the gef10-W260S mutation disrupted the recruitment of rice histidine phosphotransfer proteins (OsAHP1/2) to the plasma membrane (PM), thereby promoting cytokinin signaling. This effect was corroborated by a dark-induced leaf senescence assay, which revealed an increased cytokinin response in the gef10-W260S ectopic expression lines, whereas the overexpression lines presented a suppressed cytokinin response. Moreover, we revealed that the enhanced panicle development in the gef10-W260S lines was attributable to the upregulated expression of several type-B response regulators (RRs) that are crucial for panicle development. Collectively, these findings revealed the negative regulatory function of OsRopGEF10 in the development of the shoot apical meristem (SAM) via interference with cytokinin signaling. Our study highlights the promising role of OsRopGEF10 as a potential target for regulating SAM and panicle development in rice, revealing a valuable breeding strategy for increasing crop yield.
