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

Increasing the dynamics of non-photochemical quenching (NPQ) under changing light levels represents a promising strategy for improving photosynthetic light-use efficiency for greater crop yields. PsbS plays a crucial role in modulating both the capacity and dynamics of NPQ. Nevertheless, the specific mechanisms by which PsbS mediates functional state transitions and the detailed molecular interactions involved in NPQ are still not fully understood. In this study, we identified an amino acid residue, P132, in Arabidopsis thaliana PsbS (AtPsbS) whose substitution with alanine (P132A) causes rapid NPQ induction under low light and significantly reduces the rate of NPQ relaxation in the dark. Our findings suggest that the AtPsbS
