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

As the catalytic centre of the oxygen-evolving complex in photosystem II and a co-factor of glycosyltransferases and many other proteins, manganese (Mn) is essential for plants and a limiting factor for crop production. However, an excessive Mn availability is toxic to plants. Therefore, mechanisms need to be in place to maintain Mn homeostasis under fluctuating Mn availability. This review summarises our current understanding of the mechanisms that move Mn from the soil to its cellular targets and maintain Mn homeostasis. We zoom in from the whole-plant perspective to the intracellular allocation of the metal by transport proteins of different families acting in concert. In particular, organellar Mn supply by members of the recently identified bivalent cation transporter family and the post-translational regulation of Mn transporters by calcium-regulated phosphorylation have been a focus of current research. Finally, the emergent diversity of Mn handling beyond the Arabidopsis model will be addressed.
