Small Interfering RNAs as Critical Regulators of Plant Life Process: New Perspectives on Regulating the Transcriptomic Machinery.
Review in International journal of molecular sciences, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
Small interfering RNAs (siRNAs) are a distinct class of regulatory RNAs in plants and animals. Gene silencing by small interfering RNAs is one of the fundamental mechanisms for regulating gene expression. siRNAs are critical regulators during developmental processes. siRNAs have similar structures and functions to small RNAs but are derived from double-stranded RNA and may be involved in directing DNA methylation of target sequences. siRNAs are a less well-studied class than the miRNA group, and researchers continue to identify new classes of siRNAs that appear at specific developmental stages and in particular tissues, revealing a more complex mode of siRNA action than previously thought. This review characterizes the siRNA classes and their biogenesis process and focuses on presenting their known functions in the regulation of plant development and responses to biotic and abiotic stresses. The review also highlights the exciting potential for future research in this field, proposing methods for detecting plant siRNAs and a bioinformatic pathway for identifying siRNAs and their functions.
