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
MAIN
conclusionNine TkOSC genes have been identified by genome-wide screening. Among them, TkOSC4-6 might be more crucial for natural rubber biosynthesis in Taraxacum kok-saghyz roots. Taraxacum kok-saghyz Rodin (TKS) roots contain large amounts of natural rubber, inulin, and valuable metabolites. Oxidosqualene cyclase (OSC) is a key member for regulating natural rubber biosynthesis (NRB) via the triterpenoid biosynthesis pathway. To explore the functions of OSC on natural rubber producing in TKS, its gene family members were identified in TKS genome via genome-wide screening. Nine TkOSCs were identified, which were mainly distributed in the cytoplasm. Their family genes experienced a neutral selection during the evolution process. Overall sequence homology analysis OSC proteins revealed 80.23% similarity, indicating a highly degree of conservation. Pairwise comparisons showed a multiple sequence similarity ranging from 57% to 100%. Protein interaction prediction revealed that TkOSCs may interact with baruol synthase, sterol 1,4-demethylase, lupeol synthase and squalene epoxidase. Phylogenetic analysis showed that OSC family proteins belong to two branches. TkOSC promoter regions contain cis-acting elements related to plant growth, stress response, hormones response and light response. Protein accumulation analysis demonstrated that TkOSC4, TkOSC5 and TkOSC6 proteins had strong expression levels in the root, latex and plumular axis. Comparison of gene expression patterns showed TkOSC1, TkOSC4, TkOSC5, TkOSC6, TkOSC7, TkOSC8 and TkOSC9 might be important in regulating NRB. Combination of gene and protein results revealed TkOSC4-6 might be more crucial, and the data might contribute to a more profound understanding of the roles of OSCs for NRB in TKS roots.
