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

key messageOsCactinpositively regulates drought tolerance in rice. OsCactin is regulated by OsTRAB1 and interacts with OsDi19 proteins to defend against drought stress. Drought stress significantly limits plant growth and production. Cactin, a CactinC_cactus domain-containing protein encoded by a highly conserved single-copy gene prevalent across the eukaryotic kingdom, is known to play diverse roles in fundamental biological processes. However, its function in rice drought tolerance remains poorly understood. In this study, with its overexpression and knockout rice lines in both a pot drought experiment and a PEG drought-simulation test, OsCactin was found to positively regulate rice drought tolerance during the rice seedling stage. The OsCactin-overexpressing lines presented high tolerance to drought stress, whereas the OsCactin-knockout plants were sensitive to drought stress. OsCactin was localized in the nucleus, and was predominantly expressed in the leaves and panicles at the seedling and booting stages, respectively. Furthermore, OsTRAB1, a drought-responsive TF of the bZIP family, binds to the promoter of OsCactin as a drought-responsive regulator. OsDi19 proteins, the Cys2/His2 (C2H2)-type zinc finger TFs from the drought-induced 19 family, interact with OsCactin both in vitro and in vivo. Our results provide new insights into the intricate mechanisms by which OsCactin regulates the rice drought stress response, which may contribute to the design of molecular breeding methods for rice.
