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

Pyruvate kinase (PK) is the terminal rate-limiting enzyme of glycolysis and occupies a central position in plant energy metabolism and carbon skeleton allocation. Plant PK isoenzymes comprise the cytosolic pyruvate kinase (PKc) and the plastidic pyruvate kinase (PKp), which differ markedly in gene origin, protein structure, subcellular localization, and physiological function, exhibiting independent evolutionary histories and functional diversification. Recent studies have revealed that PKc possesses dynamic subcellular distribution, allowing it to shuttle among the cytosol, mitochondria, and nucleus, where it participates in stress responses and epigenetic regulation through protein-protein interactions. PKp is localized to plastids and connects carbon metabolism with lipid biosynthesis and the methylerythritol phosphate (MEP) pathway by supplying pyruvate, thereby playing critical roles in seed development and oil accumulation. This review comprehensively summarizes recent advances in plant PKc and PKp concerning protein structure and subunit composition, tissue-specific expression, subcellular localization, protein interaction networks, activity regulation, and their effects on plant growth, development, and stress responses. In addition, phylogenetic tree, motif, and domain analyses of pyruvate kinase genes from
