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

backgroundNITRATE TRANSPORTER 1.1 (NRT1.1) functions as a dual affinity nitrate transceptor regulated by phosphorylation at threonine residue 101 (T101). Previous studies have suggested that NRT1.1 is involved in stomatal opening and contributes to drought susceptibility. However, the precise mechanism of how the phosphorylation status of NRT1.1 affects stomatal movement and drought tolerance remains unclear.

resultsIn this study, we observed that seedlings expressing the phosphorylated form of NRT1.1 (NRT1.1

conclusionsOur study provides several lines of evidence to demonstrate that the phosphorylation of NRT1.1 at T101 contributes to the drought tolerance under LN condition by reducing the influx of nitrate and potassium into the cytoplasm, attenuating membrane depolarization and thereby inducing stomatal closure. This finding identified a novel drought resistance mechanism enabled by post-transcriptional regulation of plasma membrane transporter.
