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

To explore CRT gene family members and their responses to low-temperature stress, bioinformatics methods were used to identify the CRT gene family in pepper. In this study, a total of 4 CRT gene family members were identified by screening. The genes were found to be located on different chromosomes, and phylogenetic tree and collinearity analyses were performed. In addition, the cis-acting elements identified in the 2.0 kb upstream promoter regions of the 4 CaCRTs described in this study can be divided into three categories. The expression patterns of CRTs in different tissues and organs under low-temperature stress were analysed. Virus-induced gene silencing (VIGS) technology was used to verify the function of CaCRT1, and the results revealed that CaCRT1 participated in the pepper response to low-temperature stress and the accumulation of excessive reactive oxygen species (ROS) and malondialdehyde (MDA). In summary, this study systematically verified the regulatory role of CaCRT gene family members in pepper under low-temperature stress and provided a foundational understanding for further research on the biological functions of pepper CRT genes.
