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

Pseudostellaria heterophylla (Miq.) Pax, a perennial herb belonging to the Caryophyllaceae family, demonstrates substantial pharmacological value and serves as an ideal model system for studying chasmogamous and cleistogamous (CH-CL) floral dimorphism. In this study, by integrating short-read, PacBio HiFi, Hi-C, and transcriptome sequencing data, we generated a high-quality chromosome-level genome assembly for P. heterophylla. The 2.19 Gb genome exhibits high continuity (scaffold N50 = 144.78 Mb) and completeness (97.83% BUSCO score), with 99.36% sequences anchored to 16 pseudo-chromosomes. Repeat elements constituted 79.41% of the assembled genome, with long terminal repeats accounting for 67.30%. The analysis identified 37,158 protein-coding genes, of which 87.19% (32,397) received functional annotations. This high-quality genome assembly establishes a pivotal foundation for uncovering the genetic mechanisms underlying CH-CL floral differentiation and bioactive compound biosynthesis, while supporting molecular breeding initiatives for this pharmacologically valuable species.
