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

Essential mineral elements such as zinc and iron play a crucial role in maintaining crop growth and development, as well as ensuring human health. Foxtail millet is an ancient food crop rich in mineral elements and constitutes an important dietary supplement for nutrient-deficient populations. The ZIP (ZRT, IRT-like protein) transporters are primarily responsible for the absorption, transportation and accumulation of Zn, Fe and other metal ions in plants. Here, we identified 14 ZIP transporters in foxtail millet (SiZIP) and systematically characterized their phylogenetic relationships, expression characteristics, sequence variations, and responses to various abiotic stresses. As a result, SiZIPs display rich spatiotemporal expression characteristics in foxtail millet. Multiple SiZIPs demonstrated significant responses to Fe, Cd, Na, and K metal ions, as well as drought and cold stresses. Based on homologous comparisons, expression characteristics and previous studies, the functions of SiZIPs were predicted as being classified into several categories: absorption/efflux, transport/distribution and accumulation of metal ions. Simultaneously, a schematic diagram of SiZIP was drawn. In general, SiZIPs have diverse functions and extensively involve in the transport of metal ions and osmotic regulation under abiotic stresses. This work provides a fundamental framework for the transport and accumulation of mineral elements and will facilitate the quality improvement of foxtail millet.
