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

We explore the diverse roles of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and NADPH oxidases in red algae, focusing on their involvement in fertilization, wound repair, stress adaptation, and development. Once considered mere metabolic byproducts, ROS are now recognized as pivotal signaling molecules in red algae. ROS are actively produced and regulated by NADPH oxidase homologs in red algae. During fertilization, ROS facilitate gamete recognition and post-fertilization cell wall development. NADPH oxidase-produced ROS also play essential roles in wound repair, aiding cellular migration and cytoskeletal reorganization at injury sites. A survey of NADPH oxidase homologs in transcriptomic and genomic datasets shows that NADPH oxidase homologs have a long evolutionary history in red algae, with some orthologs duplicating before the split of the Bangiophyceae-Flordeophyceae, approximately 1.1 billion years ago. Additionally, we discuss modifications in red algal NADPH oxidase genes related to calcium binding compared to plants and hypothesize that independent calcium signaling pathways are involved. These insights reveal the significance of NADPH oxidase at a molecular level in supporting red algae's physiological processes and adaptive strategies.
