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

Miscanthus lutarioriparia, which is found widespread in China, has attracted great attention as a most potential bioenergy plant for years. The quantitative real time PCR (RT-qPCR) has appeared as a sensitive and powerful technique to measure gene expression in living organisms during different development stages. In this study, we evaluated ten candidate genes, including 25S ribosomal RNA gene (25S rRNA), actin1 gene (ACT1), carotenoid-binding protein 20 gene (CBP20), glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase gene (GAPDH), Ubiquitin gene (UBQ), eukaryotic elongation factor 1-αgene (eEF-1α), α-tubulin gene (α-TUB), β-tubulin gene (β-TUB), eukaryotic translation initiation factor 4α-1 gene (eIF-4α) and NAC domain protein gene(NAC) in a series of 30 M. lutarioriparia samples followed by statistical algorithms geNorm and Normfinder to analyze the gene expression stability. The results indicated that eIF-4αand UBQ were the most stable expressed genes while CBP20 showed as the least stable among all the samples. Based on above research, we recommend that at least two top-ranked reference genes should be employed for expression data normalization. The best genes selected in this study will provide a starting point to select reference genes in the future in other tissues and under other experimental conditions in this energy crop candidate.
