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

Indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) accumulates in host plants following infection by Xanthomonas campestris pv. campestris (Xcc), the causal agent of cruciferous black rot. How exposure to IAA affects the invading Xcc remains unclear. Here, we demonstrate that either exogenous addition of IAA or endogenous production of IAA induced turnover of the quorum sensing (QS) signal diffusible signaling factor (DSF) in a RpfB-dependent manner. IAA addition prevented the cytoplasmic and culture pH decline. Transcriptomic analyses revealed four IAA-regulated gene clusters. Specifically, IAA induced the expression of trpB-A, enhancing tryptophan biosynthesis and intracellular IAA accumulation, and thereby establishing a self-reinforcing synthesis loop. IAA upregulated F
