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

Iron (Fe) is an essential element in plants, involved in numerous metabolic processes including photosynthesis. Its cellular concentration must be regulated accurately to avoid toxicity while meeting metabolic demands. This review explores the distribution, dynamics, and regulation of Fe pools in plant cells, focusing on recent advances in imaging and quantification techniques. We discuss the major Fe compartments-chloroplasts, vacuoles, apoplasts-and their interaction to maintain Fe homeostasis, as well as novel methodologies like single-cell ICP-MS that have transformed our understanding of Fe localization. By summarizing the current knowledge on intracellular Fe dynamics and the complex interplay between different Fe pools, we provide insights into the mechanisms that underpin Fe regulation in plants, which is crucial for future breeding programs aimed at improving plant resilience and nutritional quality.
