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
key messageA total of 54 genes of membrane attack complex/perforin (MACPF) superfamily were identified in Saccharum complex and function divergence among SsaCAD-like genes were present in plant against stressors. The membrane attack complex/perforin (MACPF) superfamily belongs to pore-forming proteins involving in innate and adaptive immunity in eukaryotes. The constitutively activated cell death (CAD) proteins contained the MACPF domain participate in plant defense responses under adverse conditions. However, the characteristics and functions of CAD-like genes in sugarcane are still poorly understood. In this study, 54 CAD-like genes were identified in three genomes from Saccharum complex including two clones (Np-X and AP85-441) of Saccharum spontaneum and a clone (Yunnan2009-3) of Erianthus rufipilus. All CAD-like genes were categorized into five phylogenetic groups (I-V). Various cis-acting elements related to stress responses, such as phytohormone response elements, were found in promoter regions. Transcriptome and RT-qPCR analysis demonstrated these genes possessing diverse expression profiles. The SsaCAD1-like1 gene was upregulated in sugarcane cultivars after cold treatment and infection by Xanthomonas albilineans (Xa) causing leaf scald. Meanwhile, this gene was downregulated under drought and ABA treatments but was upregulated and then downregulated across time-points of SA treatment. The SsaCAD4-like1 gene was downregulated under five abiotic stressors. Expression levels of two alleles (SsaCAD2-like1/2) were significantly decreased under all abiotic stressors except for salinity treatment. Similar expression patterns of three alleles (SsaCAD3-like1/2/4) were found under abiotic stress. The SsaCAD1-like1 exhibited a negative role but SsaCAD3-like2/4 acted as positive roles in transgenic Arabidopsis lines against bacterial pathogen infection. Our results provide novel gene resources for developing disease-resistant cultivars in sugarcane.
