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

To elucidate the expression regulation network of papilla size of sea cucumbers (Apostichopus japonicus), the whole-transcriptome and DNA methylome datasets of different sizes of papillae in sea cucumbers were generated. Average clean bases of whole-transcriptome (16.35 G) and DNA methylome (28.92 G) were obtained using RNA sequencing and whole-genome bisulfite sequencing techniques. A total of 3,188 ceRNA networks were also identified including 3,081 long non-coding RNAs (lncRNA)/microRNAs (miRNA)/mRNA networks and 107 circular RNA (circRNA)/miRNA/mRNA networks. Methylome data indicate that there were 3,307 and 3,776 differentially methylated regions (DMRs) with high-level methylation as well as 3,125 and 3,016 DMRs with low-level methylation in big papillae compared to small papillae. The identified DMRs were mainly distributed in introns, promotors, or exons. The whole-transcriptome and DNA methylome datasets generated from this study not only established a robust theoretical foundation (especially from the epigenetic aspect) for elucidating expression regulation network determining papilla size in sea cucumbers but also can be a valuable resource of biomarker mining for papilla appearance-based selective breeding in sea cucumbers.
