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

backgroundStemona tuberosa, a vital species in traditional Chinese medicine, has been extensively cultivated and utilized within its natural distribution over the past decades. While the chloroplast genome of S. tuberosa has been characterized, its mitochondrial genome (mitogenome) remains unexplored.

resultsThis paper details the assembly of the complete S. tuberosa mitogenome, achieved through the integration of Illumina and Nanopore sequencing technologies. The assembled mitogenome is 605,873 bp in size with a GC content of 45.63%. It comprises 66 genes, including 38 protein-coding genes, 25 tRNA genes, and 3 rRNA genes. Our analysis delved into codon usage, sequence repeats, and RNA editing within the mitogenome. Additionally, we conducted a phylogenetic analysis involving S. tuberosa and 17 other taxa to clarify its evolutionary and taxonomic status. This study provides a crucial genetic resource for evolutionary research within the genus Stemona and other related genera in the Stemonaceae family.

conclusionOur study provides the inaugural comprehensive analysis of the mitochondrial genome of S. tuberosa, revealing its unique multi-branched structure. Through our investigation of codon usage, sequence repeats, and RNA editing within the mitogenome, coupled with a phylogenetic analysis involving S. tuberosa and 17 other taxa, we have elucidated its evolutionary and taxonomic status. These investigations provide a crucial genetic resource for evolutionary research within the genus Stemona and other related genera in the Stemonaceae family.
