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

The complete mitochondrial genome of the eastern oyster Crassostrea virginica (GenBank accession number AY905542) is 17,243 bp in length and contains 2 ribosomal genes, 12 protein-coding genes, and 23 transfer RNAs. The arrangement of protein-coding genes is identical to that of the congeneric Pacific oyster C. gigas, but tRNA genes show several duplications and extensive rearrangements between the species. Unique features in C. virginica include an additional trnM gene, the absence of an ATPase subunit 8 (atp8) gene, and an inferred translational frameshift within the cytochrome b (cob) gene. In both species the large subunit ribosomal RNA gene is encoded by 2 separate regions of the mitochondrial genome, the first reported case of a split ribosomal RNA gene in a metazoan. Translation of protein-coding genes in both species is initiated with methionine, with the exception of cob, which uses leucine. In C. virginica translation of all protein-coding genes (except possibly cob) terminates with TAA, with polyadenylation completing the primary transcript in cytochrome oxidase subunit III (cox3) and NADH dehydrogenase subunit 4L (nad4L), whereas C. gigas employs stop codons TAA and TAG equally. Interspecific divergence of mitochondrially encoded proteins is considerable, with amino acid identities ranging from 47% to 92%. A single major noncoding region representing the putative control region is found in both species.
