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

backgroundAscorbate peroxidase (APX) is a key enzyme that removes reactive oxygen species (ROS) in the ascorbic acid-glutathione cycle. Although APX genes have been reported in many species, comparative analysis of genome-wide, promoters, and gene functions between F. vesca (Fragaria vesca L.) and F. × ananassa (Fragaria×ananassa Duch.) have not been comprehensively explored.

resultsIn this study, seven FvAPX and twenty FaAPX genes were divided into five subgroups. By comparative analysis of the 5 motifs between F. vesca and F. × ananassa, it was found that some fragments were gained/lost. These amino acid fragments might be closely related to the function of the APX genes. Synteny analysis of F. vesca and F. × ananassa showed that there were more collinearity genes with grapes. Compared with F. × ananassa, the FvAPX2, FvAPX3, FvAPX4, and FvAPX6 proteins were more likely to use Val and Leu in F. vesca. The RT‒qPCR results confirmed that FaAPX5 and FvAPX7 were obviously upregulated under the NaCl, PEG, and H

conclusionsCollectively, our study provides comprehensive insight regarding the evolutionary relationship between F. vesca and F. × ananassa and offers substantial opportunities for further research on the functions of APX genes.
