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

BACKGROUND AND

aimsThe Brassicaceae and many species of its various genera are currently recognized as models in various fields of biology. The impact of the major advancements in molecular phylogeny, development, genomics and related fields on the systematics of the family led to the recognition of the first phylogenetic tribal classification of the family and recognition of monophyletic genera. The present review is aimed to cover almost all advancements in the family systematics for the first time.

methodsThe comprehensive literature on the molecular phylogeny, development, cytology, genomics and related fields was assembled relative to its systematics value to Brassicaceae, especially for tribal classification, generic delimitation, origin, hybridization and migration. KEY

resultsAdjustments to the limits of problematic tribes Brassiceae, Coluteocarpeae and Thelypodieae, in addition to various genera (e.g. Atacama, Delpinophyton, Menonvillea, Noccaea and Pseudoarabidopsis) are discussed and likely solutions suggested. A complete list of apomorphic characters in the family is assembled for the first time, and all species or genera in which they occur are listed.

conclusionsThis comprehensive review is the first historical advancement of the Brassicaceae systematics during the past three decades, and it aims to help current and future students of the family to understand the background of such developments.
