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 phytochrome gene (PHY1) cDNA from the fern Adiantum capillus-veneris encodes an amino acid sequence that shows equal similarity (50-60%) to all five Arabidopsis phytochromes (PHYA-E). The A. capillus-veneris PHY1 cDNA was transformed into Arabidopsis ecotype Landsberg erecta to investigate its activity in angiosperms. Three of the resulting lines contained at least 8 times more spectrally active phytochrome than the wild type, indicating that A. capillus-veneris phytochrome can incorporate the chromophore of the host plants. Hypocotyl growth inhibition of these transgenic lines was investigated under red and far-red light. The results indicated dominant negative activity of A. capillus-veneris phy1 on the phytochrome A response in the host plants under continuous far-red light. However, the fern phytochrome did not interfere with the red-light repression of hypocotyl growth mediated by endogenous phytochrome B, and it failed to complement a phyB mutant phenotype. These observations suggest that the phy1 phytochrome molecule is too diverged from those of Arabidopsis to be fully functional.
