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

Clones of two highly related genes, ZmHox2a and ZmHox2b (Zea mays homeobox), were isolated from maize embryo cDNA libraries by screening with the ZmHox1a homeobox sequence. The genes map to chromosomes 3 and 8, respectively, and encode mRNA transcripts of 6kb. The encoded proteins, ZmHox2a and b, share 84% sequence identity and exhibit a modular structure with several novel plant-specific protein domains. Interestingly, each ZmHox2a, gene product contains two complete homeodomains which, for Zmhox2a, were both shown to be functional DNA-binding motifs in vitro. Not only probes encoding the homeobox but also DNA fragments corresponding to other ZmHox2 domains hybridize to multiple bands in genomic Southern blots, indicating that related protein domains may be conserved in other maize genes. The ZmHox2a/b genes, therefore, are members of a novel and large class of maize genes, some of which can be expected to encode new transcription factors.
