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

Directional cell growth is central to cellular morphogenesis and is regulated by intra- and extracellular signaling pathways. Cotton fiber, the most important natural textile material, exemplifies a linear unidirectional cell growth that combines diffuse and polar growth patterns. However, the molecular mechanisms that govern polar growth of cotton fibers remain poorly understood. In this study, we identified a novel signaling pathway in which a guanine nucleotide exchange factor (GhRopGEF5) functions as a negative regulator of fiber polar growth. GhRopGEF5 is phosphorylated at threonine 398 by the SNF1-related protein kinase GhSnRK10, which in turn activates the fiber tip-localized GhROP10 to regulate reactive oxygen species and free Ca
