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

Owing to the high altitude and short frost-free period of the Tibetan Plateau, potato plants are frequently exposed to cold stress (CS), which severely restricts their growth and productivity. Thus, understanding the mechanisms underlying cold tolerance in potato varieties is crucial for breeding improvement. This study aims to investigate the role of caffeic acid in potato cold tolerance and to elucidate the molecular mechanisms underlying the CS response. To achieve this, we conducted comprehensive metabolomic and transcriptomic analyses of KY130 (cold-tolerant) and KY140 (cold-sensitive) potato cultivars under CS at the seedling stage. ELISA results showed that caffeic acid levels were higher in KY130 than in KY140, while CS-KY130 exhibited higher levels than those of CS-KY140. Across all treatments, KY130 showed significantly higher activities of antioxidant enzymes (CAT and SOD) and higher contents of osmolytes (proline, soluble protein, and soluble sugar) than those of KY140. Caffeic acid and naringenin* were identified as candidate metabolites potentially involved in the direct and indirect cold resistance of potatoes.
