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

Cryopreservation provides the conditions necessary for the long-term storage of plant germplasm, ensuring its viability and genetic stability over potentially limitless time periods. To enable regrowth of the propagated vegetatively plant germplasm, the plant material must undergo cryoprotection treatment before cryo-cooling and rewarming, followed by washing and revitalization procedures. Dehydration of plant tissue during cryoprotection often results in a substantial decrease or complete inhibition of regrowth after cryopreservation. Here, we describe a vitrification-based cryopreservation protocol for the genera Spirodela, Landoltia, Lemna, and Wolffia, which are mostly vegetatively propagating flowering plants belonging to the Lemnaceae family (duckweeds), and serve as a model for aquatic plants. Our protocol involves cryo-cooling whole duckweed plants and overcomes their inherent high desiccation sensitivity and exceptional buoyancy, which are characteristics of their aquatic lifestyle. Additionally, we describe the introduction and maintenance of duckweed in an aseptic in vitro culture. Overall, this protocol has been successfully applied to over 25 duckweed accessions from four genera.
