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

The hollowed root formation and 4'-deoxyflavone accumulation in Scutellaria baicalensis are associated with jasmonate (JAs) signaling, but the upstream regulators integrating these processes with drought tolerance remain unknown. This study investigated whether the 13-lipoxygenase gene SbLOX3 may act as a modulator. Transgenic plants overexpressing SbLOX3 or with RNAi suppression were exposed to polyethylene glycol-simulated and long-term soil drought stress. Metabolite profiling, gene expression analysis, root morphological measurements, and histological observations were conducted. Overexpression of SbLOX3 elevated JAs and 4'-deoxyflavone levels, enhanced root growth and drought tolerance, and induced precocious hollow development in roots under water deficit. In contrast, RNAi lines showed reduced JAs and flavonoid contents, impaired drought tolerance, and absence of hollow formation. SbLOX3 was strongly expressed in xylem, cambium, and phloem under drought. The results suggest that SbLOX3 is associated with a coordinated responseregulate to drought by promoting defensive flavonoid biosynthesis and morphological adaptation, thereby potentially contributing to the accumulation of measured flavonoids.
