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

Pokkah boeng disease has been reported in nearly all countries where sugarcane is commercially cultivated. Historically, this disease was regarded as a minor concern; however, due to the impacts of climate change, it has now escalated into a significant issue. The causative agents of this disease are fungi, specifically belonging to the Fusarium fungal complex, with Fusarium sacchari being the predominant species in Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region, China. However, the pathogenic mechanism remains largely unknown. In this study, we have identified and characterized an effector protein designated as FsP4H1, which contains a prolyl-4-hydroxylase domain and is crucial for the virulence of F. sacchari. FsP4H1 localizes to the host cytoplasm and nucleus, and its nuclear localization is required for the immune suppression in the host. We demonstrate that FsP4H1 interacts with the transcription factor DPb, a positive regulator of plant immunity, and facilitates degradation of DPb via the 26S proteasome. This degradation leads to downregulation of catalase genes, ScCAT9, ScCAT34 or NbCAT, which are direct transcriptional targets of DPb and play a crucial role in maintaining hydrogen peroxide (H
