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.
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
This study investigates the role of the BpPIN3 gene in transgenic birch (Betula pendula) and its influence on plant growth and development through hormonal modulation. Previous research suggests that auxin distribution may significantly affect branch development; however, the specific mechanisms underlying this process in birch remain poorly understood. To elucidate these mechanisms, we employed a combination of conventional histological techniques, quantitative analysis of endogenous hormones using UPLC-MS/MS, and detailed RNA sequencing of apex and lateral buds from genetically modified lines (overexpressing BpPIN3, repressing BpPIN3, and wildtype).The results revealed a significant upregulation and downregulation of differentially expressed genes (DEGs) associated with various hormonal pathways, with key functional annotation pointing to stress response, lignin metabolism, and biosynthetic processes. Notably, overexpression of BpPIN3 correlated with decreased auxin levels in lateral buds, while repressing BpPIN3 led to increased auxin in apical buds. This study provides critical insights into how BpPIN3 regulates hormone distribution and affects lateral branching in birch, offering a foundational understanding that can inform further research into hormonal control mechanisms in trees.
