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

Cadmium (Cd) accumulation in rice grains presents a serious risk to human health; however, the mechanisms underlying this process remain incompletely understood. In this study, a genome-wide association analysis identified 29 loci associated with grain Cd content (LAGCCs). Among these, one of the most strongly associated loci, LAGCC4, contains the transporter gene OsPT1, whose haplotypes show a strong correlation with Cd content in rice grains. A transposon, H-MITE, inserts into the 5' untranslated region (UTR) of OsPT1, altering its expression pattern and leading to increased Cd accumulation. Furthermore, we identified the transcription factor OsbHLH35, which specifically binds to the OsPT1
