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

Epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG) imparts distinctive health benefits and flavor to tea, and its accumulation is modulated by plant growth regulators (PGRs). However, the regulatory mechanisms of Paclobutrazol (PAC) and Lovastatin (LS) underlying EGCG biosynthesis remain uncharacterized. We integrated quantitative analysis, transcriptomics, and metabolomics to investigate the regulatory effects of exogenous PAC and LS on EGCG accumulation in tea plants and systematically elucidate the underlying molecular mechanism governing EGCG biosynthesis. The results demonstrated that exogenous PAC and LS treatments significantly elevated the accumulation of EGCG, as well as endogenous auxin and jasmonic acid (JA) contents. The variation trend of these key metabolites was highly consistent with the accumulation patterns of upstream flavonoid components, including eriodictyol, delphinidin, and epigallocatechin. Transcriptomic profiling further verified the critical involvement of auxin and JA signal transduction pathways in PGR-induced EGCG differential accumulation, and we screened a total of 14 auxin-related and 8 JA-related core signal regulatory factors. Furthermore, integrated bioinformatic analyses and antisense oligonucleotide (AsODN) functional validation experiments revealed that the core hormone signaling genes
