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

Rice is one of the most important food crops and feeds more than half of the world's population. Enhancing grain quality is currently a highly important issue since consumers are now more concerned with the taste, appearance, and nutritional value of the grain. The quality of grain in rice is complex and regulated by a multitude of genes that influence qualities such as amylase content, grain size and shape, chalkiness, aroma and nutrient content. The traditional forms of breeding, such as hybridization and marker-assisted selection, are slow and less effective since such characteristics are regulated by many genes and are influenced by environmental conditions. CRISPR/Cas genome editing has become a potent tool that enables scientists to directly and specifically edit grain quality-related genes. Important genes such as
