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

Legumes establish symbiosis with rhizobia by forming a symbiotic interface that enables cross-kingdom exchanges of signaling molecules and nutrients. However, how host organelles interact with symbiosomes at the symbiotic interface remains elusive during rhizobia endosymbiosis. Here, symbiotic cells are reconstructed using 3D scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and uncover that the host endoplasmic reticulum (ER) undergoes dynamic expansion to gradually enwrap symbiosomes, facilitating their compartmentalization and endosymbiosis. Consistently, altering ER lamellar expansion by overexpressing MtRTNLBs, the reticulons responsible for ER tubulation, impairs rhizobia accommodation and symbiosome development. Intriguingly, unfolded protein response (UPR)-marker genes, bZIP60 and IRE1A/B, show continuously activated expression during nodule development, and the two UPR-deficient mutants, ire1b, and bzip60, exhibit compromised ER biogenesis and defective symbiosome development. Collectively, the findings underpin ER expansion and UPR activation as two key events in rhizobia accommodation and reveal an intrinsic coupling of ER morphology with proper UPR during root nodule symbiosis.
