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
backgroundThe three-amino-acid-loop-extension (TALE) superfamily genes are broadly present in plants and play important roles in plant growth, development, and abiotic stress responses. So far, the TALE family in B.napus have not been systematically studied, especially their potential roles in response to abiotic stress.
resultsIn this study, we identified 74 TALE family genes distributed on 19 chromosomes in the B. napus genome using bioinformatics methods. Phylogenetic analysis divided the BnTALE superfamily into two subfamilies, the BEL1-like (BLH/BELL homeodomain) and the KNOX (KNOTTED-like homeodomain) subfamilies. Moreover, the KNOX subfamily could be further categorized into three clades (KNOX Class I, KNOX Class II, and KNOX Class III). BnTALE members in the same subclass or branch of the phylogenetic tree generally showed similar gene structures and conserved domain compositions, which may indicate that they have similar biological functions. The BnTALE promoter regions contained many hormone-related elements and stress response elements. Duplication events identification analysis showed that WGD/segmental duplications were the main drivers of amplification during the evolution of TALE genes, and most of the duplicated BnTALE genes underwent purifying selection pressures during evolution. Potential protein interaction network analysis showed that a total of 12,615 proteins might interact with TALE proteins in B. napus. RNA-seq and qRT-PCR analyses showed that the expression of BnTALE was tissue-differentiated and can be induced by abiotic stresses such as dehydration, cold, and NaCl stress. In addition, weighted gene co-expression network analysis (WGCNA) identified four co-expression modules containing the most BnTALE genes, which would be notably related to dehydration and cold stresses.
conclusionsOur study paves the way for future gene functional research of BnTALE and facilitate their applications in the genetic improvement of B. napus in response to abiotic stresses.
