Sterols in plant biology
Review in Cell surface (Amsterdam, Netherlands), 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 papers.
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
Plants sense their environment at the cell surface, i.e. the plasma membrane, where extracellular signals are perceived and transduced. Together with the cortical cytoskeleton and the cell wall, membrane lipids can influence these processes by acting on protein dynamics at the plasma membrane. Among these lipids, sterols regulate membrane fluidity and thus, protein functions. However, plant sterols are diverse in structure and particularly difficult to study due to technical limitations. Nevertheless, advances in sterol imaging, sterol-protein interaction studies, and sterol perturbation methods have resulted in a better understanding of their functions in plant development and physiology. Here we summarize the current knowledge and the latest breakthroughs, and discuss future challenges, in the field of plant sterol biology and cell surface organization.
