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.
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
Ocs elements are a group of promoter sequences required for the expression of both pathogen genes in infected plants and plant defense genes. Genes for ocs element binding factors (OBFs), belonging to a specific class of basic-region leucine zipper (bZIP) transcription factors, have been isolated in a number of plants. Using protein-protein interaction screening with OBF4 we have isolated AtEBP, an Arabidopsis protein that contains a novel DNA-binding domain, the AP2/EREBP domain. One class of proteins that contain this domain are the tobacco ethylene-responsive element binding proteins (EREBPs). The EREBPs bind the GCC box that confers ethylene responsiveness to a number of pathogenesis related (PR) gene promoters. AtEBP expression is inducible by exogenous ethylene in wild-type plants and AtEBP transcripts are increased in the ctr1-1 mutant, where ethylene-regulated pathways are constitutively active. Electrophoretic mobility-shift assay and DNase I footprint analysis revealed that AtEBP can specifically bind to the GCC box. Interestingly, the highest level of AtEBP expression was detected in callus tissue, where ocs elements are very active. Synergistic effects of the GCC box with ocs elements or the related G-box sequence have been previously observed, for example, in the ethylene-induced expression of a PR gene promoter. Our results suggest that cross-coupling between EREBP and bZIP transcription factors occurs and may therefore be important in regulating gene expression during the plant defense response.
