The expression of wingless and Engrailed in developing embryos of the mayfly Ephoron leukon (Ephemeroptera: Polymitarcyidae).

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.
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 expression of the segment polarity genes wingless (wg) and engrailed (en) is highly conserved across arthropods, and these genes play a crucial role in patterning of the segmental body plan. Investigations of the expression and function of wg and en have focused primarily upon holometabolous insects, with the notable exception of recent detailed work in Oncopeltus (Hemiptera), Schistocerca, and Gryllus (Orthoptera). An increase in the phylogenetic breadth of our understanding of molecular patterning is crucial to ascertain the extent of conservation and divergence in molecular patterning mechanisms during insect embryogenesis. We examined the expression of wg mRNA transcripts and localization of En protein during embryogenesis in the mayfly Ephoron leukon (Ephemeroptera: Polymitarcyidae). These data represent one of the first embryonic gene expression pattern data for a mayfly, a lineage that may be the sister group to all other winged insects. Many aspects of wg and En expression are highly conserved, notably their expression in juxtaposed stripes in each parasegment, as well as expression domains in the procephalon, mouthparts, thoracic limbs, and nervous system. Future work in mayflies can be used to determine if conservation extends to other components of the segmentation hierarchy.
