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

Abscisic acid (ABA) is a crucial phytohormone that functions as a master regulator of plant growth and development, as well as responses to diverse abiotic stresses, by integrating environmental cues with developmental programs. The transcription factor ABA INSENSITIVE 5 (ABI5) functions at the central hub of the ABA signaling pathway and mediates the expression of its target genes. Emerging evidence reveals extensive crosstalk between calcium-dependent protein kinases (CPKs)-mediated calcium signaling and the ABA-ABI5 cascade, enabling plants to balance growth and stress responses. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying the interactions between CPKs and ABA-ABI5 signaling are still elusive. In this study, we revealed that CPK2 enhances sensitivity to ABA during both seed germination and seedling root growth by promoting ABA-induced
